Too big for my teenage daughter for lacrosse. I'm sure a boy would get more use out of it being so big with them having more equipment than girls need for lacrosse

I was skeptical that a backpack would have enough room for all the lacrosse gear. It totally does. And with my player being younger, the helmet fits inside too (when he tucks it in his pads). So far so good, heavy duty and well made.

The only complaint I had when I first opened the package and went to put his gear in was I didn't know the piece that hooks the helmet in was in a zipper pocket, so I thought the wrong bag was sent out at first. Other wise so far this bags been great holds all him gear and it's nice his hands can be freed up from carrying the sticks as they fit nicely on each side of the bag.

We just got it but it looks very well made. I ordered the Large for my 12 year old and it's perfect for him. Holds a lot of gear

What I like most about this bag is that it is very easy to put your pads away. My other bags were hard to put my pads in and zip up. This one is pretty small and gets the job done. I also like that it can hold two sticks. This is helpful if you need two different sticks or if you need to bring a stick for someone else. I like that you can put the helmet on the outside of the bag. Originally I thought that it would fall of if I was riding my bike to practice but when I first put the helmet on the back it was really tight and I could already tell that it was strong enough to keep my helmet in while riding my bike. This helmet holder helps so much. If you need more space to put something in the bag like balls, a whiteboard or whatever, you can just put your helmet on the outside. What I do with the pocket, (the one under where you put your pads, so like the second zipper if that makes more sense) is that I put a couple of lacrosse balls and my practice jersey. In the tiny pocket underneath the second pocket I put my mouth-guards and my inhaler in there, it is smaller than the other pockets about the size of five or six lacrosse balls. There also is a cleats holder at the bottom. The water bottle holders squeeze thing always seems to get loose really fast and sometimes it falls out of my bag. One time it was raining a lot while we practiced so I put all my stuff I didn't want to get wet in different pockets. The first pocket didn't get anything wet. The second pocket stuff kind of got a little wet. In the tiny pocket that's where most of my stuff got wet. I had a shirt that I was going to wear after practice, I put it in the third pocket because it was a light shirt and could fit in that pocket. After practice when I was going to put the shirt on it wasn't super wet but I still didn't want to wear it because it was a little bit wet and cold. The cleats pocket was still dry so I could put my cleats in them without them getting wet. I looked at the picture a couple of days ago and you can apparently put balls in the water bottle holder. I tried this out and was going to ride my bike. When I rode my bike the balls actually all stayed in except the top one, the top one fell of so I put it in a different pocket. I would recommend that if you put balls in the water bottle place only put two or three balls in it. Over all a great bag!
