Strapping tape for you, your practice, and your team
A type of sports tape, rigid strapping tape is best for stabilising joints: ankles, knees, fingers, elbows and shoulders. This tape is available in multiple sizes and restricts the movement of joints, tendons and ligaments to help prevent injury or reinjury. Due to its rigidity it is not suitable for swelling, but you can use your EAB for that.
Rigid strapping tape (sometimes called athletic tape) should be used to provide support during sport or an exercise session, therefore no longer than a day. The best way to keep your rigid tape in top condition is to store it in a cool, dry place. Not in the back of your car, the adhesive will not appreciate it.
