Abstract: The present invention is a wrist guard which has a molded body having its first end configured to contact a user's palm and a second end configured to engage the user's forearm. A thumb receiving member is located at a first side of the palm end of the wrist guard and is designed to prevent overextension of the thumb. The forearm portion stabilizes the wrist guard so it does not rotate. The first strap extends betweens the thumb covering and the opposing side of the first end of the palm and of the stiff body member. This strap is selectively adjustable to ensure proper fit. A second strap is located at the forearm end of the wrist guard. This strap, like the first strap, is selectively adjustable to ensure proper fit. The user will insert their thumb into the thumb receiving member and tighten the straps for securing the wrist guard.
