SHAFTS

In lacrosse, a distinction is made between attackers, defenders and goalies, who all need different shafts. Attack players have to be very mobile and agile, and a shaft that is too long would get in the way – that’s why Lacrosse Attack shafts are the shortest of the breed, with a length of about 30”, which is the equivalent of approximately 76 cm. Defenders, however need a much longer lacrosse shaft to fend off an opponent’s attacks, so they have the longest lacrosse shafts with a length of 60”, i.e. about 1.50 m. Lacrosse defence shafts are often quite heavy because of their length. Lacrosse goalie shafts for the goalkeepers among male lacrosse players have a standard length of 40”, i.e. approx. 1 m. You can buy them along with other goalie equipment in the goalie equipment section of our online shop. Lacrosse Shafts are used as the support or mount for the Lacrosse Head. Together with a shaft, this would be described as a Complete stick. Lacrosse Shafts are available in the Captain-Lax online shop in a wide variety of colours, patterns, materials and grips. Depending on the materials used, shafts can also have differing properties in terms of weight, stability, strength, durability and rigidity. . To get a better overview, the different types of lacrosse shafts are divided into individual categories. As well as that, there is even more information covering all product areas for all of our customers in the Lacrosse Product Guide section of our shop, togther with further information about the different manufacturers we work with – see Lacrosse Advice in the Captain-Lax online shop..
