Optional Stick Purchase - If you are new to lacrosse and not sure what stick would be best let us get one for you! We highly recommend using the Brine Dynasty Warp Junior given the fixed, built in pocket. This will enable younger players to develop good mechanics and habits when learning to catch, throw, cradle and pick up ground balls. More importantly, it will make catching and throwing a whole lot easier! The club is offering Brine Dynasty Warp Junior Sticks to players in Grade 1-4 for $80 purchase.
