Learn about Defense Lacrosse Shafts


Defense shafts are designed specifically for the defense position. These shafts will be longer and heavier than attack and midfield shafts and are designed to knock down passes and throw big takeaway checks.


Choosing the Right Defense Lacrosse Shaft


When choosing a defensive lacrosse shaft, be sure to keep note of the shaft’s weight, material, and shape. The weight will affect how fast you can throw checks, while the material will affect the shaft’s durability and flexibility. The shape is a personal preference that can boost a player’s confidence.
