Benefits of technology

[0007]The aim of the present invention is to solve the above mentioned problems, eliminating the drawbacks of the cited background art, by providing a bowling glove which allows optimum ball control and allows to reduce fatigue in particular of the hand, wrist and forearm of the user during the practice of bowling.
[0008]Within this aim, an object of the invention is to provide a bowling glove which allows to support and stabilize in an optimum manner a bowling ball during its support and throwing.
[0010]Another object is to provide a bowling glove which is structurally simple and has low manufacturing costs.

Problems solved by technology

However, these known types of glove have a drawback: the grip on the ball is not ideal, since it also rests on other regions of the hand; moreover, said gloves do not protect the hand and the wrist against the intense flexural and torsional stresses to which they are subjected during ball throwing; these stresses can lead to rapid fatigue of the hand, wrist and forearm, with the risk of compromising the playing performance of the user and also of causing traumas thereto.
However, these known types of glove have the drawback that they do not provide adequate protection against torsional stresses, which, as mentioned earlier, can lead to rapid fatigue, particularly of the wrist, hand and forearm.
