Ive had jumpers knee for awhile now, and I have a strap for when I go running. but when I play volleyball, I can't use the strap because of my kneepads. Is there a brace or anything that I can wear underneath kneepads that will still be effective?

Taping with zinc oxide tape is probably the best bet. It will have the same effect as a strap but is slimmer so should fit under pads.
You can view a taping technique on our jumpers knee pages.
