What is a "thigh pad"?
A thigh pad is a protective piece of equipment worn on the thigh, commonly used in sports like cricket, hockey, or football, to shield the legs from impacts or injuries. Made from foam or other soft materials, it is designed to absorb shock and prevent bruises or fractures during play. Thigh pads are typically worn under the clothing and are secured with straps for a comfortable fit. They provide protection without restricting movement, allowing athletes to perform their actions while staying safe from potential injuries.
Example
The cricket batsman wore a thigh pad to protect against fast bowlers.
During the football game, the quarterback wore thigh pads for added protection in the pocket.
