Generally, every player uses the same basic equipment: lacrosse stick, helmet, gloves, cleats, etc. However, differences exist in these pieces of gear that make them better suited to the needs of different positions on the field.
The Goalie Stick: The last type of different lacrosse sticks is the goalie stick. This is used only by goalies. Its shaft is about 40 inches long. According to US Lacrosse, the complete goalie stick must be between 52 and 72 inches. The width of the head is between 10 and 12 inches. As you can see, the goalie stick has a much bigger head than the other sticks. This is because it is easier to save the ball.
