US Lacrosse Women's Stick Stringing Rules Withdrawn
from press release
BALTIMORE — US Lacrosse has announced
that the two proposed rule changes for women’s lacrosse
approved at the September Board of Directors meeting are being
withdrawn. The implementation date for those two rules will
be delayed until at least August 2013.
The two withdrawn rules, both of which were included in the
manufacturer’s specifications section of the rule changes
summary, are:
• Decorative holes may not be used to attach the pocket
to the head.
• The strings may not be looped over the top of the
bottom rail of the sidewall.
Those rules may be reconsidered at a later date, but any
implementation will not occur prior to August 2013.
The sticks that would have been affected by the implementation of
these rules, including but not limited to the Brine Quantum, shall
be considered legal for play.
