FALL 2025

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:

Complete Beginners Lacrosse Stick

• STX Exult Rise Complete Lacrosse Stick with Junior Lock Pocket

• STX Crux 100 Complete Lacrosse Stick - Mesh

• StringKing Women’s Starter Jr. Youth Lacrosse Stick

• Brine Dynasty Warp Jr.

* Make sure it is a GIRLS stick, not a boys. And do not buy small sticks such as "Fiddle Sticks".

• STX 4Sight+ S Youth Lacrosse Goggles

• STX Lacrosse Rookie Goggle

Getting used to wearing goggles can be difficult for beginners. A ​ Neoprene Goggle Strap provides a more comfortable fit.

* If you want head protection as well as eye protection, you can choose to wear a helmet rather than goggles, but it is NOT required. This is a personal choice.

A mouthguard is required for all players. You can buy them locally or online, but please make sure you follow the instructions and mold your mouthguard before playing. A second mouthguard is also suggested since children tend to lose them easily.

*make sure you are buying a YOUTH mouthguard.

Soccer or lacrosse cleats will work great. Soccer cleats might be easier to find for this age group.

Stay hydrated! Bring a water bottle to every practice and game.
