After talking to a few HS trainers about how they treat students, I was told a majority of them use athletic tape around the shin. After experiencing off and on bouts over the years I had to give this a try. What I found that works for me is to take an ace bandage (2" x 2yds ?) start at the ankle and wrap tightly (not tight enough to cut off the circulation) half way up my shin and down, ending at the ankle. Throw on two pair of socks, my shoes already have the gel inserts and I'm ready to go. I don't want to jinx myself but this, combined with my pre-game stretching has given me years of pain free games on all types of surfaces.
