Gear Up with the Green Knights: Visors and Turf Tape Trends
As the Rice Green Knights prepare for the upcoming D-II season, their athletes are turning to innovative gear to gain a competitive edge. One trend taking hold is the use of Riddell SpeedFlex helmets with the optional Riddell Visor System, featuring the Riddell V-Strike visor ($40-$60). This visor provides enhanced protection and visibility, a must-have for D-II athletes who often face bigger and faster opponents. Another key item is turf tape, specifically the 3M ScotchBrand Athletic Tape ($5-$10 per roll). This tape offers superior grip and durability, essential for athletes who spend hours on the field each week. With the VPA's emphasis on player safety, the Green Knights are prioritizing gear that not only performs well but also keeps them protected. Parents, consider investing in a Riddell Visor System and 3M ScotchBrand Athletic Tape for your child's football gear this season.
