What are good gifts for a lacrosse player?

The gift lacrosse players want most is new gear they won't buy for themselves: a new head, a custom dyed head, a new shaft or fresh mesh and strings. Our store managers suggest a custom dyed head for youth players, a new shaft for middle schoolers and a new strung head for high school players, who often need one and won't ask.

Our picks by player

Beginner / youth

Best pick

A custom dyed head would make any youth player's day, and the Omen is wide and easy to catch with.

Middle school

Value pick
Best pick

By middle school most players are still using the same beat up shaft because it hasn't broken yet.

High school / advanced

Value pick
Best pick

Most high school players won't replace a head even when they badly need one.
