Boys helmet (1-4th grade): 

We do not recommend using a used helmet. Helmets must be replaced every 3 years because the plastic degrades. Please buy a new helmet or make certain you know who had the helmet and how long they were wearing it before choosing a used one.

The Next Step...

Girl's and Boy's 5-8th Grade equipment suggestions:

Lacrosse sticks can be costly. Youth players in 5-8th grade should expect to spend between $90 and $300 for a complete stick. Choose a brand your child likes. Try it with a ball in the store and see how comfortable they are throwing and catching. No 5th graders needs a $300 stick, so try to stick to the under $150 range. The only brand PYL coaches do not appreciate is the Brine Evo Warps. They look cool, but no youth player does well with them in our experience.

As the kids get better, the sticks can really help them. The technology these days is amazing - especially on the girls side. Boys often have different heads and shafts for different positions. Your coaches can help you select something. If you need a suggestion for something specific before the season starts, feel free to reach out via email here and we will help you. EMAIL US

*If your son wants to pay defense, check with your coach about borrowing a long pole before buying anything. We have some for borrowing. 

** PYL provides goalie sticks to all players who want to try goalie. We also supply protective equipment for goalies. No need to purchase unless your child is a dedicated goalie.
