What is causing the aching in the arch of my foot while playing basketball?

I was playing with a pair of running shoes that were a few years old so figured newer shoes would help, but when I switched to my basketball shoes that are only 8 months or so old the problem still persists. Do I need even newer or more specialized shoes? Please help! Thanks.|||you should get foot supports. I had the same problem with my volleyball shoes and i got a pair of SuperFeets and that got rid of the soreness|||get some inserts for your shoes. they have a machine at walgreens where you stand on it and it tells you the best arch insert to get.
