Ermm; if you mean the sleeved shirts with pads; They're called goalie jerseys or goalie tops. You can find them in Pertama complex or Al-ikhsan. They're quite hard to find in normal retail shops.

As for helping; obviously. Ultimately the perfect technique is to dive without skinning the elbows; achieved via skimming the surface and landing at one go rather than dragging the elbow through the surface; whereby the friction would tear the skin. But to cater for errors made, wear one since none of us have too much skin to shed and we all make mistakes. heh.

Do you all know where can I buy GK jersey????

To prevent fingers from getting injured, especially in futsal games, tape Ur fingers. U can use athletic tapes, or normal thin surgical tapes (about RM4 per roll). U can also tape (or use elastic braces) for Ur wrists. Those expensive elastic finger guards are just for show only, tape is better.

Hi, good to see a dedicated thread for GK. normally GK job is not as glamorous as midfielder and striker. and more often than not, we landed in that position because no one else wants it. that was the case for me.

to me GK is really not so glamorous. normally ppl won't remember the fantastics saves you made but instead remember the blunders you made that caused your team to lose. on the other hand, if strikers missed the simplest opportunity to score they will be easily forgotten and the goals they scored will be remembered and sometimes recorded as well.

nowadays contact lenses are soft lenses, won't shatter in your eyes. the worst thing that could happen is dust/sand goes into ur eyes. i've high astig too and it has to be custom ordered. a bit more expensive. 6 pairs would cost about Rm250. as i only wear for sports 1 pair could last me 2 months.

for those who are shortsighted, try it and feel difference. after i started wearing contacts, i earned callups for friendlies. before that couldn't judge ball properly especially playing in the evening. at times when i was already dark i just raised my hand hoping the ball will hit my hand.
