Hockey stick extender

Abstract

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.
