EQUIPMENT AND PROTECTION NEEDED TO PLAY ``PELOTA VALENCIANA´´

EQUIPMENT AND PROTECTION NEEDED TO PLAY
``PELOTA VALENCIANA´´

Hello, today I am going to talk about the equipment and the protection that players wear when playing Pelota Valenciana - Raspall.
The equipment has to be comfortable, shorts, t-shirt and trainers are usually worn..
The hands have to be very well protected, as the ball can cause great harm to them. 
So as not to get hurt thimbles of skin or plastic are placed on the fingertips with tape. 
It is preferable to use the skin thimbles while playing in the street and plastic thimbles for use in the 'Trinquete'.
