| has gloss | eng: Lacrosse gloves are heavily-padded, protective gloves worn by mens lacrosse players. The gloves are designed to protect players hands, wrists, and forearms from checks, or legal defensive hitting common in the sport. Gloves consist of thick padding on the back of the hand and forearm covered in leather or canvas material, and a palm area made of synthetic and mesh material. A goaltenders gloves may have extra padding for the thumb to protect against injury from shots. While NCAA collegiate rules require that mens gloves have palms covered, other leagues, including post-collegiate club lacrosse, the National Lacrosse League, Major League Lacrosse, and international play, permit players to cut out the palm area for greater grip and control of the lacrosse stick. |
