SWAX LAX Lacrosse Training Ball - Indoor Outdoor Practice Less Bounce & Rebounds

Got this for my son so that when he is in the house he can practice his cradling. This Swax ball is wonderful, it's soft on the outside so not to break anything while being as heavy as a regular lacrosse ball. I don't worry about him breaking anything in the house with this ball.

My kiddo is going to try lacrosse out this summer. I was trying to teach her whatever I remember from a zillion years ago, but practice balls are still bouncy (and still hurt). My partner got this on a whim and it's great, the right size and weight for throwing, catching, and cradling... But filled with sand so much much much less bounce. Now I'm (somewhat) spared the indignity of my wife laughing at her near-elderly husband hustling his fat butt across a field chasing a ball when I'm playing catch with my kid. I give this thing 2 lacrosse sticks up!

They hold up fairly well even on asphalt.

My kid loves this! It’s been a great practice ball for the bounce back, passing, and drills to keep us from having to chase down missed balls. Durable, good quality and similar weight as a normal ball. 10/10

I purchased this ball to allow my daughters to throw in the backyard without damaging our vinyl fencing. After two trial runs and afew errant throws, it appears to live up to the task. It is alot more flexible than a standard lacrosse ball, but still throws and catches close enough to one to make it an effective training tool. I would caution against using it by concrete though, as the leather-ish cover does appear to be subject to scuffs - if that matters to you.

Bought these for my daughter that plays lacrosse. We have seen them a few times but never really used one. They are great to practice cradling. Great for indoor practices so the ball doesn't roll away or bounce and cause any damage.

Happy with it. My daughter likes it for practicing lacrosse

I bought 2 of these to teach my 7 year old son how to play and I wish we had these when I was playing in high school. So far we have gone out twice to play catch, learn the basics and do some wall ball. They get a 5 start rating so far. They feel like the real thing, no tears so far even when I have thrown a few zingers and most of all we aren’t spending 99% of our time chasing after balls that bounce and roll all over the place.For any parents or people in general thinking of trying these here is a little extra info. When I was in high school in Florida we lived near an outdoor racquetball court open to the public. All 4 walls and the ceiling were made of cement so it was the perfect spot to solo practice and play wall ball. I don’t live there anymore so I recently drove all over the place looking for a good wall to practice on but couldn’t find one that met the following criteria (flat, no windows, on grass, closed in area so the ball won’t bounce far away). I had the Swax Lax balls for a while and one day we were at a school playground when I noticed it had a big, flat wall with no windows, it was a semi enclosed area but it was on a cement outdoor basketball court. A regular ball would bounce a hundred miles but I remembered I bought the swax lax ones so we went and tried it out. PERFECTION!I was able to teach him how to throw against the wall and the swax lax ball would hit the wall, make a small bounce and roll just enough to get back to the thrower. This let him practice repetitive throwing without extended breaks chasing down the ball. I wanted to see how durable the balls were so I took some really hard shots at least 40 times in 2 outings so far and they have held together. We plan on going out a lot more and I will try to remember to update my review good or bad. I am about to buy 2 more tonight because we almost lost one to a storm drain yesterday today.I have not tried the other bean bag brand or the water one yet but may one day.

These are a must if you have a lacrosse player! They don’t bounce, so you don’t have to chase the ball down the road! Same size and weight as a lacrosse ball, so they are great for training, and practicing at home.

Our son is starting lacrosse and wanted to practice his ball handling indoors. the regular lacrosse balls are hard rubber with high bounce. this will give you similar feel without the bounce for indoor.Very durable and well loved.

Awesome practice ball! Feels like a real ball but you don’t need to chase it down the road!

My young family plays catch a lot, and we're forever blowing up dollar-store foam balls. We wanted something that would stand up to the abuse, and this fits the bill. It's heavy, and it takes a bit of getting used to, but it seems pretty bullet-proof.

A bit pricey, but it is what it says it is...works and doesn’t hurt when hit
