A member asked:
Can you play soccer with an arm splint on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Physically, yes, but: Depending on the competition, the referee may not permit you to play. I am a ussf certified referee and in sanctioned competitions, casts/splints are not permitted due to the risk of injury to other players.
