COOLSTICK LACROSSE STICK HEAD
CoolStick engaged Overwatch to create a patented women’s NCAA lacrosse head that takes into account the rigors and violence of the sport. As a vital piece of sports equipment, the “X-Pro” required significant attention to detail to meet its durability needs. The head is made from a proprietary blend of performance plastics, combining the best in design, engineering, and materials.
The Challenge
The product design needed to fit within the NCAA’s stringent constraints for women’s lacrosse heads. Two head designs were created for testing and certification at an independent lab.
The Results
The NCAA compliant product has been on the market since 2015. With Overwatch’s expertise and guidance, a small entrepreneurial inventor was able to compete in the marketplace with well established global lacrosse head manufacturers.
Cool Fact
The modified scoop shape at the top of the head allows for quick and easy ground pickup. This thoughtful design helped create a head/pocket combination that facilitates faster ball release without sacrificing accuracy. A 31-point independent laboratory test and certification ensures that the X-Pro meets all women’s NCAA compliance rules while remaining cutting edge, tough, and accurate on the field.
