How to choose a hockey stick growth

To choose the right hockey stick, you need to consider not only the growth of the player, but his role is striker or defender, as well as a number of other parameters.

Choose the length of the putter, in accordance with growth of the player. If you put it vertically, the handle should be located approximately between the nose and the chin. This measurement is taken without considering the height of the skates, the usual growth of man.

If you choose a club that is suitable in all respects, but it's a little longer than necessary, just to file it so that it was ideally suited for the growth of a person. Still try to choose a shell, more suitable for the player, as if to cut part of the handle, it increases its stiffness. This setting affects the playing characteristics.

Choose a putter in accordance with the grip, who plays hockey – he is left or right, depending on which hand the owner of the clubs is below. If a person has never played and doesn't know your grip, for example, if you buy the stick of the child, then to determine him, ask the player to take two hands MOP. The hand that will be below, defines the side of the grip.

The essential point when choosing a putter is the shape of the bend of the hook. If the stick you select for the child, the first can buy even without the bend. So quickly will become clear which hand he play better, and also, there will be time to wait until the child himself decide his role. The bend defines many technical aspects: dribbling, shot, pass the puck. Depending on the technique, athletes choose bend under him, guided by your preferred style of play.

The lack of composite sticks only one: they are very expensive.
