A lightweight lacrosse training ball that is suitable for use in lacrosse training drills is lighter, softer, and larger than a regulation lacrosse ball. The lacrosse training ball is comprised of multiple layers: an inner (non-hollow or hollow) layer comprised of a rubber compound; a middle layer comprised of felt or a similar cushioning material; and an outer layer. In one embodiment, the lacrosse training ball is a non-hollow or hollow, lightweight hall with a cushioning layer covered with an outer surface. The light weight of the lacrosse training ball makes it suitable for training where player safety is of concern. The light weight is also advantageous for developing optimal catching ability, forcing players to focus on "giving" with the catch or catching softly. The larger size of the lacrosse training ball increases catching proficiency as there is less room for error in catching a larger ball. |
