What Are Defense Shafts in Lacrosse?

While all mens' and boys’ lacrosse shafts are the same width, so they fit all heads, they are not always the same length. Defensive players use much longer shafts—”poles,” as they’re called—than offensive players. The long defensive shafts are seen as an equalizer, allowing them to keep up with offensive opponents. The number of long poles is limited, depending on your level of play. Lastly, virtually all lacrosse heads will fit on a shaft no matter if it’s an offensive or defensive shaft. Defensive players, for example, may prefer an offensive head and vice versa.

Offensive players must use shafts measuring 30 inches, while defensive players typically use shafts 60 inches long.


How Long is a Lacrosse Defense Shaft?

Defensive lacrosse players should use a longer shaft that is somewhere in the range of 52 to 72 inches.


Buying Used Checklist: Defense Shaft

Buying used gear is a sustainable way to score high-quality items at a fraction of the cost. Not only can you find great deals, but you might also stumble upon rare or discontinued gear that’s no longer available in stores. When buying a used lacrosse shaft, here's what to look for:

✔️ The shaft has no cracks.
✔️ The shaft is not bent.
✔️ The shaft has the butt end cap.
