If your daughter is just starting, you want her using a stick that’s forgiving and easy to handle so she can learn confidently and enjoy the game right away.

The right stick supports proper mechanics and makes lacrosse feel simpler — which leads to faster progress and more fun.

When choosing a stick, consider her skill level, size, strength, and coordination, and always make sure it meets current girls’ lacrosse rules.

Most importantly, her stick should have a modified pocket.
A modified pocket helps the ball stay secure while still teaching correct technique, giving beginners the best balance of control and development.

💡 Coach Caroline Tip
If she’s dropping the ball constantly, it’s usually not her — it’s the stick.
A beginner should be focused on learning to move and play, not fighting her equipment. The right pocket builds confidence immediately and keeps kids coming back excited.

✅ STICK! If you do not have one, please let us know right away so we can set a loaner aside. Please return after each clinic.
✅ MOUTHGUARDS are required for girls grades 1st and up. Be sure to mold the mouthguard so your daughter can wear it comfortably.
✅ GOGGLES are also REQUIRED for girls grades 1st and up.
✅ WATER
✅ Proper athletic clothing (bring extra layers as many of these indoor facilities can be a bit chilly!)
✅ Sneakers are fine for indoor turf. When we are playing outside, cleats are preferred.
✅ MUST wear hair back!
✅ BE SURE TO LABEL ALL EQUIPMENT!

Stickwork & Skill: the groups are divided both by age & skill.

We build on basic fundamentals: catching, passing, cradling, ground balls, footwork, dodging, and shooting.

For many girls, this is their first entry into organized youth sports, or they’re easing into it — so we also teach them good habits that make great teammates: listening to coaches, keeping pace, showing gratitude, and cleaning up when we’re done.

We finish with fun, game-like scenarios and small-sided scrimmages so players can apply what they learned in motion and build confidence fast!

• At GLOW, we make every effort to hold clinics as scheduled, but player safety always comes first.

• Sessions will be canceled at least two hours prior if conditions are unsafe, either on the fields or on the roads.

• An email update will be sent if it is clear the conditions are too dangerous.

• Clinics will continue as planned in drizzle or light rain!

• If a clinic is canceled, we’ll provide details on a make-up class date.

• Alternatively, you are welcome to jump into another class that is offered that might work for your schedule. Please contact Caroline with questions: caroline@glow-lacrosse.com
