ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment of the present invention, an improved handle (12) for a lacrosse head (16) is provided. The improved handle (12) includes a tubular member (20) having a top end (14) for attachment to the lacrosse head (16) and a bottom end (18) that is opposite to the top end (14). The tubular member (20) further includes an outer surface (22) having one or more predetermined portions (24) with a substantially hard coating (26) coupled thereto. The substantially hard coating (26) is utilized for strengthening the tubular member (20), preventing damage thereto, decreasing vibration therein, and providing the player with tactile stimuli as to the orientation of a lacrosse stick (10) within his hands.
