I washed just before a competition and later found out that the coach had told other parents not to wash them. I guess that a fresh pair can affect the fit of the grips.
Freshly washed, or new wristbands slip or shift during use.
Hairspray, of tuff skin fixes that.
Tell her if she doesnt bring them home you will ask the coach.I cannot get dd to bring her wristbands home. The girls keep their grip bags somewhere inside the gym, not in their personal lockers. I guess that whenever a girl takes home her grips (if it isn't the day before a meet), it's a sign that she's leaving the gym, so apparently all the girls are reluctant to bring home their grip bags. I told dd she does not need to bring home her grip bag, but she must bring home the wristbands to wash. She doesn't, so I keep on sending her in with new ones.
I wish her coach would tell her to take them home to wash!
My dd has never had an issue with her clean wrist bands slipping or shifting...
Oh man...I can't throw hers out. Even the neon green ones that she won't wear anymore she has in her keepsake drawer....yes, weird child.You can wash for sure.....but they still come out like sandpaper. I buy them by the dozen and replace them every month or two.
Also, a boy on the team got a terrible skin infection from not keeping those things clean.......
