Men's Lacrosse Heads

A strung head comes ready to use, with mesh and shooting strings already installed - great for players who want to skip stringing. An unstrung head allows for full customization, so advanced players can string it to match their playing style.

Here’s a quick guide:

1. Attack & Midfield: Look for heads with a narrower face shape for better ball control and quick release. Popular options:
- ECD Rebel Offense, Mirage 2.0, ION
- StringKing Mark 2A, 2V, Type 5 Mesh Kits

2. Defense: Choose a wider and stiffer head for effective checking and ground balls. Try:
- ECD Rebel Defense, StringKing Mark 2D

3. Faceoff Specialists: Go for a flexible yet durable head with excellent recovery. Best picks:
- ECD Weapon X, StringKing Mark 2F

4. Goalies: Look for a large surface area and controlled flex. Top picks:
- ECD Impact, StringKing Mark 2G

We recommend:

- StringKing Legend (INT or SR) – affordable, balanced, and durable
- ECD DNA – beginner-friendly but elite ready These heads are versatile, forgiving, and ideal for players still refining their technique.

Yes, it matters a lot! Stiffer heads (like Mark 2D or Mark 2F STIFF) hold their shape longer, ideal for defense or faceoffs. More flexible heads offer better feel and are easier to scoop with—better for younger players or finesse-style play.

Yes. Women’s heads have a narrower channel and often require different stringing. We carry women-specific models like:

- StringKing Mark 2 (Defense, Midfield, Offense)
- ECD Infinity

These are designed for female athletes, with optimal control and feel for women’s lacrosse rules and ball size.

Some heads are pre-strung or part of a mesh kit bundle (check the product title). Others are unstrung only. We also offer complete mesh kits from ECD, StringKing, and Jimalax to pair with any head.

Most modern heads use universal heads with a standard screw-in throat, meaning they’ll fit most men’s and women’s lacrosse shafts. Always check if your shaft is attack/midfield, defense, or goalie length to match accordingly.

Absolutely. You can combine multiple models (attack, defense, faceoff, goalie) as part of your institutional or team purchase.
