ABSTRACT:
A frame for a ball catching and delivery head for use in, for example, the sport of lacrosse comprising a frame having a scoop, a base and spaced lateral sidewalls therebetween defining the periphery of a ball receiving and delivery face. Each of the lateral sidewalls includes a flex region which is more elastically compliant and resilient than the remainder of the frame. In one embodiment, the flex regions define regions of the sidewalls comprised of a material which is more flexible than the material comprising the remainder of the frame. In another embodiment, the flex regions are defined by springs incorporated into the sidewalls. In a further embodiment, the flex regions are defined by regions of the sidewalls of reduced height and cross-section. In a further embodiment, the sidewalls comprise separate, pivotable aft and fore frame/sidewall members.
