About the STX IX 401 Indoor Field Hockey Stick 35 inch

Built by STX, the USA hockey brand, the STX IX 401 Indoor Field Hockey Stick is aimed at beginners who want something forgiving and easy to use. STX is known for beginner and youth sticks and composite sticks (XT, HPR), with roots going back to 1970.

It uses a composite build that balances stiffness and touch.

The low bow profile places the curve close to the head, which makes lifting, aerials and drag flicks easier.

As an indoor stick it is lighter and thinner than an outdoor model, made for push passes and quick stick work on the court.

The version linked here is the 35 inch length. Check our stick size chart below to confirm the right length for your height.
