Question re Gloves

Name Changed

I'm not sure if this is in the right forum but I was wondering about gloves?

What does anyone think of them? Would they be worth buying? I've never really used them and I want to know if it actually makes that much of a difference.

I presume you're talking about football.

On a dry day you can't beat a bit of spit on your hands but if it's wet i'd say they're pretty much a necessity. It depends on what you feel comfortable with. Borrow a pair off someone and try them out in training.

A pair of light gloves with grip are brilliant I think. Just don't go for the goalkeeper shot stopper type gloves.

I would recommend these ones. Specially designed for the O'Neill's Gaelic football

If it's raining you defo need a pair of gloves.I have a pair of nike gloves i think...got them in Lifestyle.Looking at getting the O'Neills ones.Still surprises me how many guys don't wear gloves in the pi**ing rain we get here.
Mostly the younger guys who don't bother and by half time they are always looking for a pair:mad:
