If you are talking about the ones that are almost like underarmour material, they are just called half-sleeves

Slaytwebeling, I think most everyone just makes them by cutting the arms off of longsleeve ts - pretty expensive if you are using UA gear. You play for Georgetown?

Slaytwebeling, they def do NOT exist as an UnderArmour product - I checked the website earlier looking for them. Sorry bud. How is the Salado squad looking this year? What class are y'all? Who is in your district?

We might be alright next year where going to be a young team. We have a chance a 2nd or 3rd in our district with Rogers being ranked in the top 10 in state. We are 2A lago vista jarrel florence those are some of the teams in oru district.

I guess since i know now that under armour doestn make them does any other companys make them

I made my own just by cutting the sleeves off of a long sleeved under armour shirt.

I think I know what you're talking about. They're more like elasticized sleeves that keep you warm as well. In my world we call them Stockinette. They do come in different sizes and thickness.
If you have a Trainer at your school, he can order it in bulk and you just cut off the length you need. But then again I'm sure everyone one the team will start using them just so they can look "cool".

Neoprene sleeves work just as well, but they stretch out and stink after a while.
