Best 32 Inch Field Hockey Sticks 2026

Who should use a 32 inch field hockey stick?

A 32 inch stick fits many 8 to 10 year olds. Players at this age start hitting harder, so composite sticks with a little carbon become a good upgrade from wood.

As a rule of thumb, a 32" stick suits primary-school players moving to full-size pitches: players who are 4'4"–4'7" (132–140 cm) tall, which for most children means around age 8–10. Height matters more than age, so measure before you buy. Children grow fast, but a stick that is too long is harder to control and can lead to bad habits, so resist sizing up more than one step.

32 inch stick size chart

The highlighted row shows where a 32" stick sits in our full field hockey stick size chart.

Between sizes? Go shorter for close control and dribbling, longer for reach and hitting. FIH rules cap stick length at 105 cm (41.3").

How to check 32" is the right length

1. Stand straight in your playing shoes and hold the stick upright beside you, toe on the ground.
2. The top of a 32" (81.3 cm) stick should reach your hip bone. If it reaches your belly button, it is too long; if it stops at the top of your thigh, it is too short.
3. Get into a ready position with knees bent. You should be able to keep the head flat on the ground without bending your back too far.

If 32" feels long, try a 31 inch stick. If it feels short, compare 33 inch sticks. The same length rule applies to indoor sticks; see indoor field hockey sticks if you search for a 32 inch indoor field hockey stick.
