Abstract:

Embodiments provide a lacrosse head having a stop member, a first sidewall, a second sidewall, and a transverse wall. The stop member may be configured to receive a handle defining a horizontal centerline. The first and second sidewall may extend from the stop member in a forward direction, with the transverse wall connecting the first and second sidewalls opposite to the stop member. When viewed from a side view, a lower sidewall rail of the first sidewall may descend at a first angle, relative to the horizontal centerline, from a first rearward end portion adjacent to the stop member to a second forward end portion at a transition point of the first sidewall, and the first rearward end portion may be raised relative to a lowermost point of the stop member, such that the stop member is offset downwardly from the first rearward end portion.

Abstract:

A head for attachment to a lacrosse stick is provided. The head has a protrusion feature on its back edge proximate the widest portion of the head and a stringing configuration to provide increased ball control when the ball is placed against the back of the head during a draw play. The head is additionally designed to allow the back of the head to seat inside the frame of the head of an opposing player's stick. The head is advantageously used for women's lacrosse games.
