Well football, as I call it. My husband's team is top of the premier league in England, and also in the final of the cup. Arsenal had better do the double.

Nothing to do with shin guards, just that I love football and will enjoy the Cup Final, while I visit my family in England.

Great review.

Yes shinguards are very important(or shinpads, wherever you live). In fact they're REQUIRED to play soccer, but it's good she wants to wear em' for every bit of protection. It'll help her when she gets older :)

I must be looked over by god, cause somehow I'm not crippled with a leg disorder or anything..especially from some of the injuries I've had from faulty shinguards.

Lol yes I love soccer(football). And I totally agree, "the older they get, the harder they kick" is my motto.

You covered it all so well! My daughter's only 6, but she's been playing soccer for 4 years now, and will NOT go on the field without shinpads...all those legs kicking at the ball are bound to hurt someone sooner or later and she's going to do everything she can to protect herself. And she loves every minute of it!

Great review!

a football review on Epinions from someone INSIDE the US. Quite a startling thing that. Anyway. Great little piece on shinpads (we call them shinpads)- i'd just reiterate that wearing the strongest possible shinpads is always a good idea... especially as you get older. But you already made that point :-)

Nice stuff
