Last Updated 11/23/2021

Lacrosse Retailers

Before buying check out these online retailers for the best prices and if any discounts or checkout codes exist.

Best Beginner Complete Stick

If your brand new to Lacrosse, I'd recommend the StringKing Complete line of sticks. They come with great mesh and pockets and are reasonably priced.

Ages 9 and Under

Ages 10-13

Above 13

  • Buy one of the sticks listed below

Lacrosse Heads

Below are a list of lacrosse heads that we would recommend. Shop around at the above websites to find the best deals. General Comments

  • Buy an X spec or Universal lacrosse head. They are a little wider at the narrowest part of the head, and High School spec sticks will be illegal in the near future
  • Kids usually like white heads as they get into the 12+ age range
  • Kids usually like white mesh and white shooter strings. In addition some dyed mesh can feel harder and more rigid giving the head a little less hold

$50 to $80

Midfield

Less then $50

$50 to $80
