they’re used mainly so when you come down from jumping to hit/jump-serve/jump-set, you don’t roll your ankles.

to give you ankle support and to protect your ankle cause volleyball shoes don’t give ankle support.

so you don’t roll your ankle if you come down from jumping the wrong way, or if you jump and land on a volleyball. OUCH that would hurt!

As a volleyball player, i can tell you that braces help a lot! When hitting and blocking the ball you are up in the air, when you land sometimes your ankle can role or land awkward, thus the need for a brace. Many volleyball players have bad ankles and need braces for when they play.

Ankle braces are a very helpful aid in preventing a rolled or sprained ankle. I know from experience that ankle braces are very helpful and provide enough support that when you run, drive, jump up, or land, you won’t severely hurt your ankles.

to protect your ankles. but i wouldn’t wear them, because then your ankles don’t strengthen!

They are there to support your ankles and prevent you turning/rolling them when you land from a jump.
Whilst useful, I wouldn’t wear them all the time – its’ better to have strong ankles as well. Exercise is the best way for this.

almost all voleyball players wear cative ankels not ankel braces! Active ankel are support so that when you are playing you dont roll and ankel and arent allowed to play! Amkel braces however are for giving you the support and strength while you play volleyball or any other sport! I would HIGHLY recommend active ankels because the worst thing you can do when playing volleyball is get hurt! i personally prefer active ankels instead of ankel baces because ankel braces dont give any help from getting hurt its like not wearing anything at all!!!!
