Advantages: very cheap and very protective, great for beginners/intermediates Disadvantages: very slight point of protectiveness and comfort but that would be petty
...i did this wearing my slazenger helmet that i would trust if a ball came towards my face. these helmets are very good for beginner/intermediate players. if you are just starting hockey this is one of the cheapest helmets around, but don't let that fool you as this would keep you easily protect from a shot at the face, it was so good that when my first slazenger helmet got too small, i brought another one, i even got a fellow hampshire goalkeeper ...
Advantages: Great for hitting, close control and lifting Disadvantages: Price is quite high

However after my second match I already noticed alot of wear and tear, which was surprising considering i paid £40 for this stick and I was greatly disapointed. The paintwork was falling off and the stick literally ... ...I felt like a 'dudd' - pardon the expression, but I just don't know how else to explain it.
By my third match I was generally just worried whether or not my stick would last, so much so that I took my old stick with me, as well as putting some reinforcement tape on the end of my swordfish. This however didn't seem to help at all, in the second-half I went in to tackle someone who took a massive chunk out of my stick, there was a massive spinter ...
