What are Volleyball Kneepads?

Volleyball kneepads are very important to protect your knees and to avoid any injury. Kneepads for volleyball can be found in many different styles, colors, and brands at many sporting goods stores or online retailers. The right knee pads for you will depend on the position that you play on the court.

They come in two main styles: hard or soft. Hard kneepads are typically made of plastic or metal, while soft pads can be made out of neoprene, nylon, rubber, leather, polyester-foam padding or any combination thereof.

A good rule-of-thumb is that if you play on a court that has wood floors with slippery surface like linoleum then it may be best to wear hard kneepads which will provide more stability than softer ones because they have less give when making contact with the floor (less sliding). If you play on a court with cement or asphalt, then softer kneepads will work best as they provide more grip and traction.

Hard pads are often preferred because they offer more protection for the knees, but they can make you feel stiff and inflexible. Soft pads are more flexible, comfortable and light weight which makes them a more popular choice.
