Hockey stick

This invention relates to improved hockey sticks, and in particular, but not exclusively, to hockey sticks intended for outfield players. A hockey stick has a head () with an enlarged gape () with an extended toe height (T). The stick exhibits a circulation effect whereby when placed face down on a ball with the lowermost part of the outer edge of the stick in contact with the ground, the stick may be twisted in one direction to the open stick playing position and in the other direction to the reverse stick playing position, whilst the spatial position of the stick is not varied and the outer edge is in rolling contact with the ground and without disturbing the ball. The head also provides enhanced catching features which provide significantly increased control of the ball during play.
