With the athletic tape, we were able to better support joints and prevent injuries during practices and games. The massage guns and foam rollers helped players recover faster by reducing muscle soreness and keeping everyone ready to compete. The new knee pads provided extra protection and confidence on the court, allowing players to play more aggressively without fear of injury. For the first time ever all the players had their own knee pads.
