Lacrosse Ball Store

What Lacrosse Ball Store does

Lacrosse Ball Store is a privately held, bootstrapped e-commerce retailer founded in 2009 in a New Jersey garage, specializing in lacrosse equipment and custom team apparel. The company sells certified lacrosse balls, goals, nets, heads, shafts, stringing supplies, protective gear, training equipment, and adjacent sports balls (field hockey, baseball, hockey, soccer) through a Shopify-based direct-to-consumer website serving individual athletes, teams, schools, and institutions. The platform supports institutional purchase orders, volume discounts, and free shipping on pallet ball orders, with prices ranging from single units at $2.99 to premium goal pairs at $3,323.

The company's core technical and commercial differentiation is its Build-a-Team-Store platform, which allows teams, leagues, and institutions to deploy branded storefronts for centralized purchasing. It also offers custom sublimated apparel, tents, banners, displays, and table covers, plus a professional custom stringing service for men's, women's, and goalie lacrosse heads priced at $30-$40 per head. Trusted-supplier relationships are claimed with NCAA programs (Duke, Notre Dame, Johns Hopkins), Team USA Lacrosse, the Iroquois National Lacrosse Team, and the New York Jets, and the site displays a 4.7/5.0 Shopper Approved rating across 3,853+ reviews.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through one-time product sales across B2C and B2B channels, supplemented by professional stringing services and quote-based custom apparel contracts. The company employs 1-10 people, has not disclosed any external funding, and operates from a single New Jersey headquarters. The ownership appears founder-controlled with no parent company or institutional investor disclosed, and there is no indication of AI, proprietary software beyond the Shopify stack, or non-retail technology bets.
