- I like cleats/turfs with high ankle support. Lacrosse is a sport that requires quick dodging and movement, so you want to protect your ankles as much as you can.

- Women's lacrosse balls (yellow)
- Turf running shoes
- Gloves
- Long sleeve underarmour and leggings for cold games

- Tips
- Some players like to play with yellow mesh, because the women's lacrosse ball is yellow. Yellow mesh helps hide the ball better when you are shooting/faking.
- STX outlines which stick type is best for which position on their website
- If your daughter is having trouble with her stick, it might need to be "re-strung" or the shaft of the stick might need to be cut a little shorter. Consult with a coach if you think this might be the case.
