ABSTRACT:
A hand/wrist positioner or brace adapted for use by persons participating in sports, particularly bowling. It is made of flexible material to wrap around the hand and wrist in the manner of a wristband or more specifically a fingerless glove with securing means to hold it in position. It has a thumb hole to receive the thumb and ball of the thumb, its forward end extending to cover the palm and back of the hand. Provided in the front of the article, that is, on the palm side, there is a stiffening member to bridge between the palm and inner side of the wrist contoured to conform and extending into the palm of the hand. This stiffening member prevents forward flexing of the wrist. A second rigid stiffening member is provided in the back of the article to bridge between the back of the hand and wrist, this member having an outwardly bowed contour at the back of the wrist to restrain backward flexing of the wrist beyond the contoured position.
