This is what our pro’s suggest you look for:
- Wide based lacrosse head - Standard stringing set up which includes a mid-pocket, plus 1 nylon & 2 shooting strings - Lightweight lacrosse shaft/stickHere are the best complete lacrosse sticks for beginners:
1) Maverik Critik with Lax.com Custom Pocket
$85 - We took a real offensive head and strung it with our time-tested semi-soft mesh, added a touch of color and put in a mid-high pocket. The result is that a high school player could use this complete stick tomorrow in a game, it is just that good. We bolted on a super-light shaft (slightly sandy grip for the younger guys) and made an amazing combo that is absolutely perfect for the little guys to start hitting the wall or fields with, right out of the box. You will be amazed at how much better control, shot speed and accuracy your little guy will have when they pick this stick up!

2) The Warrior WARP Next complete lacrosse stick
$110 – The story here is all about a pocket that NEVER changes. Wet, dry, leave it in outside - it’s all good. Warrior created these new soft Kevlar pockets that never stretch. This pocket will throw and shoot the same EVERY SINGLE TIME. Pretty amazing. Many youth programs are waving these in because out go the excuses. Proper technique and consistent results are the name of the game here. Check out the WARP NEXT VIDEO.

3)The StringKing Complete 2 Jr
For AGES 6-9 If you have a really new player and want an amazing beginner stick for only $69 you just found it. Again, its all about the pocket here. This is the lightest stick of the bunch and has a thinned down and shortened shaft for little hands. If you want their first stick to be a winner, and keep the frustration levels down, do them a favor and spend $15-20 more than you would on a big box nightmare and get them one of these! The next step up from the junior StringKing lacrosse stick is the StringKing Complete 2 Attack Intermediate. This complete boys lacrosse stick is designed for players ages 10 t0 14 that are just starting out in the game.
