Abstract: A game board assembly includes a game board. The game board includes a base, sidewalls upstanding from the base, and a top wall coupled to the sidewalls. A track is defined through the game board. The game board assembly further includes a plurality of game pieces. Each of the game pieces includes a shaft, a head at a top of the shaft, and a foot at a bottom of the shaft. The shaft fits within and is slidable along the track. The head and the foot each include dimensions that inhibit removal of the game piece from the track.

Abstract: A lacrosse head for a lacrosse stick is provided. The lacrosse head has an open frame having a rearward base, a scoop opposing the base, and a pair of sidewalls extending between the base and the scoop. The lacrosse head has a throat portion projecting rearward from the open frame for receipt of a lacrosse handle element therein so as to define a head/handle axis projecting forwardly of the throat portion. The open frame has a plurality of holes for securing a lacrosse net along a back side of the frame, leaving an opposing front side of the frame open for receiving a lacrosse ball. Each of the pair of sidewalls has a bottom portion and a top portion. Each of the bottom edge of the sidewalls angles to the right. The bottom edge of the left sidewall angle inwardly and the bottom edge of the right angles outwardly, in relationship to the top edge of the sidewalls. The distance between each sidewall stays the same distance or gets wider than the distance between the top edge of the sidewalls.

Abstract: Bamboo lacrosse shafts and methods of manufacturing bamboo lacrosse shafts are disclosed.

Abstract: A lacrosse head includes a base, a scoop, and a pair of sidewalls. The sidewalls include upper and lower rims and further include a dual flare configuration. The first flare is in a rear portion and is characterized by the upper rims of the sidewalls being spaced closer together to one another than the lower rims. The second flare begins from approximately the middle portion of the sidewalls and generally throughout the forward portion and is characterized by the upper rims of the sidewalls being spaced further apart from each other than the lower rims.

Abstract: A lacrosse head that is constructed of multiple different materials or components having different strength characteristics with the stronger materials or components located in predetermined locations to provide increased resistance to flex and/or breakage in those areas while allowing desired flex in some areas. The lacrosse head is co-formed of the multiple different materials by such processes as injection molding, gas assist injection molding, compression molding, thermal forming and extrusion such that the multiple different materials are coupled to form a single integrated structure.

Abstract: A lacrosse stick includes a flared (e.g., forked) end and a flexible head frame adapted to receive a mesh thereon.

Abstract: A pocket for a head of a lacrosse stick is provided that includes a plurality of runners extending generally in a longitudinal direction and a plurality of cross laces extending generally in a transverse direction. The pocket further includes one or more joint members that are formed at an intersection of a runner and a cross lace. The runner and the cross lace lie over one another and are held in place by the joint member. A method for forming the pocket is also disclosed.

Abstract: A reinforced lacrosse head having improved strength includes a pair of opposing sidewall portions each having a top end and a bottom end, a scoop portion extending between the sidewall portions, a base portion extending between the bottom ends of the sidewall portions, and a throat portion extending from the base portion for attachment to a lacrosse handle. This reinforced lacrosse head has one or more reinforcement members that are coupled to one or more portions of the lacrosse head.

Abstract: A lacrosse head comprising a frame, a plurality of vertical attachment projections, and a pocket. The frame includes a pair of sidewalls with each sidewall including an exterior surface and an interior surface. The vertical attachment projections are spaced along each sidewall wherein each vertical attachment projection is vertically attached to the interior surface of one of the sidewalls. The pocket is then attached to the vertical attachment projections.

Abstract: A reinforced lacrosse head having improved strength includes a pair of opposing sidewall portions each having a top end and a bottom end, a scoop portion extending between the sidewall portions, a base portion extending between the bottom ends of the sidewall portions, and a throat portion extending from the base portion for attachment to a lacrosse handle. This reinforced lacrosse head has one or more reinforcement members that are coupled to one or more portions of the lacrosse head.

Abstract: A lacrosse head with improved weight and handling characteristics includes a frame element having a base portion, a scoop portion, and a pair of opposing sidewall portions extending between the base portion and the scoop portion. The frame element includes one or more cavities integrally formed within one or more of the sidewall portions, the base portion, and the scoop portion. In addition, the lacrosse head includes a no-skid surface integrated with a portion of the frame element. This surface is intended to create friction between the no-skid surface and a lacrosse ball, as well as to absorb kinetic energy of the lacrosse ball preventing the ball from inadvertently bouncing out of the lacrosse head or rattling therein.
