The 12-stud configuration along the bottom of the cleat provides maximum grip on the field, allowing you to cut without worrying about slippage. The lightweight fit and feel is what will give you an unrivaled advantage on the field.

# Nike CEO Lacrosse Heads

The Nike CEO Lacrosse Head isn't just a namesake—it’s a face-off performance champion. Explicitly designed for midfielders, it boasts a shortened throat for power and control during draws, an aggressive scoop for effortless ground ball pickups, and a zero-friction design for lightning-fast reactions. 

This head isn't just about individual dominance; it also marks a significant chapter in Nike's lacrosse legacy. While Nike entered the scene focusing on offensive sticks, the CEO series specifically targeted the midfield. It quickly gained recognition for its exceptional face-off prowess, solidifying Nike's commitment to cater to all aspects of the game. 


### **Perfect head for:** offensive players and face-off midfielders


### Key Features Include:



* The bottom rail is ideal for mid-pocket placement
* The most pinched universal head in the Nike line
* Elongated bottom rail designed for mid-pocket placement
* Reinforced sidewall delivers durability
* 8 top wall string holes and 16 sidewall string holes
* Meets NCAA and NFHS specifications


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [STX Duel 3](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/duel-3-2/l172275) and the [StringKing Mark 2F Stiff](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/string-king/mark-2f-stiff/l406788)

While the Nike CEO reigns supreme for elite face-off specialists with its high-flex profile and narrow scoop, it faces stiff competition from the STX Duel 3 and StringKing Mark 2F Stiff. The STX Duel 3 also prioritizes face-off dominance with its refined high-flex profile and similar narrow scoop design. However, the Duel 3 incorporates XT2 sidewall technology for increased stiffness and stability, appealing to face-off specialists who value a more secure feel during clamps. The StringKing Mark 2F Stiff takes a slightly different approach, catering to two-way midfielders who participate in both face-offs and regular play. Its stiff construction offers power for both face-offs and shots, while the mid-pocket design allows for decent control during passing and cradling.


### Progression:

Over the years, the Nike CEO Lacrosse head has steadily refined its scoop, stiffness, and weight for optimal performance.  


[Nike CEO](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/nike/ceo/l721): 



* The original Nike CEO head was designed for elite offensive players.
* It gained popularity among face-off specialists due to its optimal stiffness and unique flex point, offering an advantage in securing ground balls and winning draws.
* The head featured a high and wide scoop, well-suited for mid-pocket stringing styles.

[Nike CEO 2](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/nike/ceo-2-2/l11445) 



* An updated version of the original, it retains the strengths of its predecessor, including the optimal stiffness and a high, wide scoop.
* Modernized design and improved functionality compared to the original CEO.

[Nike CEO 3](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/nike/ceo-3/l352849):



* Building on the success of the previous models, the CEO 3 prioritizes face-off specialists even more than before.
* It features a shortened throat design for closer hand placement, enhancing power and control during face-offs.
* A zero-friction scoop for easier ground ball pickups from various angles, aiding offensive plays.
* Updated flex profile to provide face-off players with multiple options for controlling the draw efficiently.


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* Good for the faceoff guy. This head can withstand a lot of punishment.
* Ball stays in the pocket until you shoot. Provides clean, accurate shots. String job with hero mesh is the way to go.
* This is a great weapon to have at the X. Super durable and after one year, still performing at the highest level.

CONS



* The scoop is just okay; it’s pointed so if the ball is not right in the center of the head, the ground ball will not work. Also, the head gets stuck in the ground if you're going on an aggressive angle. 
* Exits well, but will need to put a softball in it every day.
* GB are 50/50; sometimes the head folds in so you have to get pretty low for them.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

 
The Nike CEO is the first generation of the CEO line that Nike came out with. The design gave faceoffs a whole new perspective of the game because the head is really flexible. You can do a lot with it. And it will continuously hold its shape. The head allows you to define how you want to take a face-off. If you're more of a player who wants to pinch the ball and pop it out backward to your wing, then you'd have the ability to do that because the Nike CEO is strong and flexible enough to get that angle and pop. Also, it's a great head for picking up the ground ball from any angle.
