How To String Your Stick

OK, you've got that fancy new lacrosse stick straight off the store shelf.  Since it was probably strung by someone who has never seen the game played before, you may want to re-string yours to make it shoot or pass better.  If you want to give it a shot, here're some resources you can use to learn how to string your lacrosse stick properly.  Lacrosse stringing kits can be purchased at Play-it-again Sports in the Britton Plaza on South Dale Mabry (813-837-8771).

Generally speaking...

  • A shallow pocket is used by feeder attackmen and people around the crease who need get off quick-stick shots.

  • Deeper pockets are used by middies and defensemen who need to protect the ball while on the move.

You can find a ton of other stick stringing resources on Google.  Try clicking this link "stringing a mesh lacrosse stick".

Resources for fixing your stick pockets 

When you throw a pass or take a shot, if the ball isn't going where you want it to, then maybe you should take a look at the pocket in your stick.  Check out the "Stick Stringing" section in the Menu on the left.  The videos link is excellent and the guy explains things so it's easy to understand.

You can find kits like this one below to help you do this.
