<p>A stand-alone, rigid lacrosse pocket is formed from a piece of mesh netting that is shaped to exhibit a desired pocket contour. Once shaped, a coating of stiffening material is applied to the netting and embeds within the shaped mesh netting to "fix" the desired pocket contour and form a rigid lacrosse pocket. The rigid lacrosse pocket is thereafter attached to a conventional lacrosse head, using the same stringing technique as commonly used to attach the mesh netting to the head. Advantageously, by pre -fabricating the lacrosse pocket, the need to "work" the netting into the desired shape is eliminated, and a player can quickly and easily change pockets as necessary. A method of fabricating the stand-along, rigid lacrosse pocket is also disclosed.</p> |
