Zusammenfassung: | A lacrosse stick with an elongate tubular handle, a plastic head and an improved connection assembly between the handle and head, the connection assembly including an insert inside the handle and straddling at least two opposing walls, at least one screw threaded through the insert and through the opposing walls of the handle to compress the insert between the walls of said handle. The threaded engagement of the screw through the walls and insert sandwich the latter, maintaining a constant compressive force against the laterally enlarged heads and against the interior walls of the handle. This avoids loosening and/or dislodgement as a result of impact or vibration, and resists the threads of the screw stripping either the walls or the insert as a result of torque or other stress. A unitary sleeve insert, a one-piece straddle post embodiment, and a two-piece post embodiment are herein shown and described. |
