Is anyone else flabbergasted by the new rule changes for sticks? How is it possible that they change the rules on sticks and make almost every girl stick out there illegal? My daughters team was told that the referees will be checking sticks very closely now that league games are about to start.
What exactly are you talking about??
There are new rules about the stringing of girls sticks. Strings must be looped through the side walls, not exceeding a gap of 1 1/2 inches between loops. Most girls sticks are illegal because they have never been strung this way before. Most of the stock in lacrosse stores has to go back because they are being sent to stores illegally strung. This new rule applies to high school girls. I would suggest having your daughter ask her coach or bring it to a lacrosse store and have it checked.
