Question 1

Sticks

Accepted Answer

You can buy a brand new stick or a used one. Play it Again Sports or Facebook Marketplace are great places to start for a used stick. When choosing a used stick, try to not choose a stick that is too short of a shaft and has fairly new strings. If you know an older lacrosse athlete, sometimes they are fantastic resources for all sticks. For questions about restringing a stick, contact us at info@roswellyouthlacrosse.com.()

For new sticks, below are a few examples:
