These entry-level pads were designed to move more naturally with your arm and elbow while offering good protection! Warrior has improved on their existing designs in a few key areas to make the Alpha LX 40 Elbow Pads a great elbow pad for recreational level players! The Alpha LX 40 Elbow Pads will have lightweight slash and bicep guards which will give good protection in the areas it is needed the most. New Lay flat straps will also help these to be easy to use and will help these to not get caught on your jersey.
