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

Junior stick sizing

Juniors usually need 28" to 35". The top of the stick should reach the hip bone. A stick that is too long makes dribbling hard and encourages bad posture, so avoid buying one to grow into.

Composite or wood for kids?

Wooden and fiberglass sticks are forgiving and affordable for young beginners. Junior composite sticks with a little carbon suit kids who play several times a week.
