Abstract: A lacrosse head configured to form a pocket channel, the lacrosse head having a stop member, first and second sidewalls extending from the stop member in a forward direction, and a scoop connecting the first sidewall and the second sidewall opposite to the stop member, with the scoop having a forward edge and a rearward edge, with the rearward edge of the scoop defining generally an arc shape except for a recessed portion disposed at a longitudinal centerline of the lacrosse head, and with the scoop defining at least one stringing hole disposed forward of the recessed portion. Alternatively, a lacrosse head may have a scoop that defines a plurality of lateral stringing holes disposed generally along an arc, and that defines a forwardly offset stringing hole disposed along a longitudinal centerline of the lacrosse head and forward of the arc.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a lacrosse head having a juncture configured to receive a handle, with a majority length of the handle defining a horizontal centerline, a stop member adjacent to the juncture, a first and second sidewall each extending from the stop member in a forward direction, and a transverse wall connecting the first and second sidewall opposite to the stop member and defining a terminal contact point at which a ball traveling in a forward direction generally along a bisecting line of the head may last contact and release from the head during a throwing motion. When viewed from a side view, a lower sidewall rail of the first sidewall may descend to a lowest point that is at least 1.75 inches below the horizontal centerline, and the terminal contact point may be at least 2.25 inches higher than the lowest point of the lower sidewall rail.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a lacrosse head having a stop member, a first sidewall, a second sidewall, and a transverse wall. The stop member may be configured to receive a handle defining a horizontal centerline. The first and second sidewall may extend from the stop member in a forward direction, with the transverse wall connecting the first and second sidewalls opposite to the stop member. When viewed from a side view, a lower sidewall rail of the first sidewall may descend at a first angle, relative to the horizontal centerline, from a first rearward end portion adjacent to the stop member to a second forward end portion at a transition point of the first sidewall, and the first rearward end portion may be raised relative to a lowermost point of the stop member, such that the stop member is offset downwardly from the first rearward end portion.
