While Baby Boomers may not be familiar with it, lacrosse is the fastest-growing sport in America. Gen Xers and millennials were among the first to wholeheartedly embrace lacrosse, and they’re passing their love of the game on to their children. As a result, many more Americans are playing the fastest game on two feet – so you just might have a lacrosse player on your holiday list. Wondering what to buy? Rukket has you covered.
Best Gift for Any Player
Lacrosse Rebounder
Lacrosse is fundamentally a game of running, throwing, and catching. Of these skills, speed is one of the easiest to work on without any tools. But catching a wild pass or throwing accurately and powerfully requires hours of repetition – and there are only so many team practice sessions. Rukket offers two different lacrosse rebounders to fit any players needs. Our original Lacrosse Rebounder has been a customer favorite throughout the years due to its versatility and dependability.
We also just launched our Lacrosse Rebounder Pro. This rebounder is tremendously durable and gives incredible bounce back so you can practice feeding from further away. It also comes with a rain fly to keep it protected when not in use.
Best Budget Lacrosse Products
Bucket Caddy
You don’t have to spend a lot of money to get a quality gift that any ball handler will appreciate. The only thing more irritating than an errant toss is scrambling around the yard or field trying to collect all those misplaced balls. The bucket caddy and hip-level ball caddy holds twice as many balls as a regular bucket. So if your gift recipient is lugging lacrosse balls everywhere, do his or her back a favor and get this portable ball caddy. It can be set up or collapsed in seconds, and includes a carrying bag for the on-the-go player.
Best Choice for Beginning Players
Barricade Multi-Sport Portable Barrier Net
If your future superstar is just embarking on his or her lacrosse career, do yourself (and your gift recipient) a favor and purchase this portable barrier net or a Barrier XL. Even if the love affair with lacrosse doesn’t last, any athlete will get years of use out of this essential tool. If you’ve ever heard the tinkle of a window breaking, you know how much damage a ball can do. The barrier net lets players of all skill levels lob rocks to their hearts’ content – without fear of property damage. You can also purchase a barrier connector to go with it so you can create your own shooting arena free from worry of errant shots.
Best Choice for “Lax Rats”
Portable Lacrosse Goal with SPDR STEEL Netting
Got someone on your list who can’t go an hour without mentioning his or her sport of choice? Lax rats are ready for pick-up games and practice whenever they can get their hands on a stick and ball. The portable lacrosse goal makes things a little easier for your lacrosse lover. This goal is easy to set up and is built with Rukket TOUGH netting, so it can take a heavy beating. And like all our lacrosse products, this portable goal comes with a satisfaction guarantee and a lifetime warranty, so your athlete can rip shots with confidence.
There’s a reason lacrosse’s popularity has exploded in recent years. It’s as aggressive as hockey, as fast-paced as soccer, and as fun to watch as football. If you want to kit out your lacrosse player this holiday season, Rukket has your back.
