Black Friday Lacrosse Deals

What Counts As A Real Black Friday Lacrosse Deal?

Men's and women's lacrosse use different sticks. Women's sticks have a shallow pocket and different rules, so a girls' or women's stick bought for the wrong league can be useless on game day. Match the product to the league and the age bracket before you look at price.

A "complete stick" should include the head, shaft and mesh already strung. Check that the listing says so, because some pages sell only the head. Compare the same kind of stick: an aluminum beginner shaft from Franklin Sports is a different product than an STX Stallion 1K or a Champro LRX7, which targets more serious players. Last year's colorways from STX and Champro are a likely source of true markdowns.

Bundles that add a ball and a small bag can look generous, but compare against the stick alone so you know what the extras cost.

Shaft length and head width depend on the position, so check whether a stick is made for attack, midfield or defense. Youth leagues also have equipment rules, which is another reason to ask the coach before buying.

Which Lacrosse Should You Buy?

Most listings are complete sticks sorted by age and position. Buy for the player's age first, then for the position.

Right now 2 of the 12 sticks below are discounted, and the deepest cut is 20%.

Pockets can be pre-strung or need adjusting, and a good pocket is the difference between a stick that catches and one that does not. A shaft that is too long is hard for small players to control.

When Do Lacrosse Deals Drop?

Mark three dates: Thanksgiving on Thursday, November 26, Black Friday on Friday, November 27, and Cyber Monday on Monday, November 30. Amazon has not announced its own 2026 Black Friday Week yet. Last year the event ran from November 20 to December 1, opening at 12:01 a.m. PT, so a similar early start is plausible this time.

Rival retailers have published theirs. Target's early sale runs November 5 to 7, Walmart's early deals run November 12 to 15 with its main event November 23 to 29, and Best Buy's main deals run November 19 to 28. Amazon does not price-match any of them, so a lower price elsewhere will not be matched at checkout.

Early discounts on youth sizes are worth watching, since kids outgrow sticks fast.

A starter stick does not need to be fancy. Growth matters more than features for younger players, so treat price as secondary to size.
