Kookaburra LB20 Hockey Stick
The Kookaburra LB20 Hockey Stick is built for developing field hockey players who want control first, with enough power to grow into their game. It suits junior and intermediate players building core skills and confidence.
With 20% carbon and a Dual Core construction, the LB20 offers a forgiving touch without feeling soft or unstable. It helps you trap cleanly, pass accurately and strike with consistent power as your technique improves.
How It Performs
The 20% carbon layup gives you a softer feel on first touch, which matters when receiving hard passes at pace. You get enough stiffness to generate power on hits and slap shots, but not so much that it punishes off-centre contact.
The L Bow 260 shape supports developing technical skills. It’s well suited to controlled dribbling, flat passes and basic drag flick development. Players working on fundamentals will appreciate how balanced it feels through the hands.
The Dual Core build improves overall touch and response, helping with quick transfers and tight control in midfield or defence. It’s a practical choice for school hockey, club training and weekend games across New Zealand.
