Junior players are usually 7 to 12 years old, measure between 4'4" and 5'1" and weigh from 70 to 110 pounds.
Elite level sticks are crafted with the latest technology to provide the highest performance. They are lighter, offer superior feel, improved balance, and enhanced pop or rebound. However, while they provide top-tier performance, they are usually far less durable.
Mid curves offer versatility, excelling in stickhandling and quick shots. They provide a good balance of control and power, making them a popular choice among players who value agility and precision. Examples of players using mid curves include Sidney Crosby and Auston Matthews.
Hockey sticks often go on sale for a few key reasons. The most common include the release of new models, prompting retailers to discount older inventory, and end-of-season sales aimed at clearing stock for upcoming product lines. Discontinued models and overstock issues also contribute to clearance pricing, as stores look to free up space for new arrivals. Additionally, sticks with less popular features may be marked down to attract buyers and move inventory quickly.
