A goalie hockey stick including a shaft with two bends in it, a vertical paddle and a blade with an added bend that allows goaltenders to play their position with the goal of stopping the puck from scoring by blocking the puck or deflecting the puck away from the opening of the goal. It also allows the goalie to play, control, pass and shoot the puck both standing and on their knees.

The hockey stick extender device was invented to address the problems of too short goalie sticks. A stick being “too short” means that the point where the stick broadens out is too low on the shaft. The extender is a cap with a hole or tunnel pierced therethrough. The shaft of the hockey stick is passed through the extender, and the extender is lowered on the shaft until it lies on the part of the stick where the stick widens. The effect of the extender is to raise the point where the goalie will grasp the stick higher on the shaft of the stick, or equivalently the combined stick and extender raises the point where the shaft of the combined stick and extender widens.

A stickhandling tool has a first hockey stick blade, a second hockey stick blade, and a structural part with a cross member that connects to and laterally separates the first hockey stick blade and the second hockey stick blade to define a ball or puck receiving cavity between the first hockey stick blade and the second hockey stick blade.

A hockey stick or other sports implement for a player. The hockey stick or other sports implement comprises an elongated member to be held by the player and an end cap mounted to the elongated member. The end cap comprises an end portion comprising an end of the end cap that defines a longitudinal end of the elongated member, and a hanging portion comprising a hanger to hang the hockey stick or other sports implement. The hanger is adjustable.

A device and methods for training a person for face-offs in athletic activities and games. The device includes a base connector, a main resilient member, and a stick wrap. The stick wrap is connected to the heel of the stick and to the main resilient member. The base connector is connected to the main resilient member and serves to connect the training device to a stationary structure. The main resilient member is configured to provide a desired level of resistance to a face-off motion of the stick by the user. An auxiliary resilient member is provided for connection in parallel to the main resilient member to enable the device to provide increased resistance to the face-off motion of the stick by the user.

Training equipment includes a hollow shaft having a sidewall defining an internal cavity and at least one polymer material filling at least a portion of the internal cavity. The polymer material may fill the entire internal cavity of the hollow shaft. The polymer material may be a visco-elastic polymer material or polyurethane. A spacer or a filler may fill at least a portion of the internal cavity. A method of making weighted training equipment with a hollow shaft having a sidewall defining an internal cavity may include injecting a curable composition into at least a portion of the internal cavity. The method may further include curing the curable composition into a polymer material.
