composite field hockey sticks

Description

Grip: Traction High Soft Lengths: *5" to *9" Weights: Light + Medium Head Shapes: Maxi. Hook, Midi Ascertaining compliance to bow limits The Rules of Hockey ***6 limited curve of the stick to *5mm so as to limit the power with which the ball can be flicked and to try to ensure that hitting control was maintained (the curvature to the face of the stick considerably influences the angle at which the stick-head strikes through the ball). The placement of the maximum bow along the length of the handle has not, however been specified, so the angle at which the stickhead is presented to the ball (and hence the facility to lift the ball easily) will vary (as will the propensity to lift the ball accidentally when hitting it). It is now illegal for any hockey stick to have a bow that exceeds *5 mm. The bow height is measured by placing the stick face-side to a flat surface and presenting the official measuring device, a *5mm high metal triangular or cylindrical measure, to the gap between the surface and the under-flat of the stick.
