Active Ankles: Why Wear Them?

Question: Hello, I have a quick, but silly question. I’ve noticed alot of girls on my club team wear active ankles. I just wanted to know why you are suppossed to wear active ankles and what it help you do in volleyball. Thanks

Thank you for the question! Well I can see why younger players would be confused about this. Active Ankles are worn for 2 reasons. Either for prevention or the player needs extra support due to a previous injury.

Do you wear ankle braces?

I wear ankle braces on both ankles. Just curious to know how many people wear ankle braces, and their reason.

I torn the outside ligament of my right ankle 98% the summer before my senior season (awful timing, I KNOW! lol). I have really weak ankles so it was bound to happen. Sucks that I had to miss the AAU nationals in Disney that year though But anways, I now wear T2 Active Ankles on both ankles.

1. What’s your story?
2. Do you wear 1 or 2?
3. Do you wear them because of injury or prevention?
