Gear Up: North Kingstown Skippers Prepare for Two-A-Days with Compression Gear
As the North Kingstown Skippers gear up for their Div II season, compression gear is taking center stage. Coaches and players alike swear by the benefits of brands like 2XU and Under Armour, particularly their sleeves and tights. The Skippers' star quarterback, Jack, credits 2XU's Compression Plus Long Sleeve ($80-$100) for helping him recover faster and perform better during intense summer workouts. 'It's like having a personal trainer in a sleeve,' he says. Div II athletes often prefer compression gear for its ability to provide targeted support and stability, especially in the knees and elbows. With prices ranging from $50 to $150, parents can invest in their child's performance and comfort. Consider purchasing a pair of Under Armour Unstoppable Tights ($70-$90) to help your athlete power through those grueling two-a-days.
