My son is 9 and is just curious about lacrosse. He's average height, skinny build. Would this be an appropriate size for a 3rd/4th grader?

Yes. My son just started and is the same size as yours. It's a good size to start with

Yes..my daughter has used it for lacrosse with no problem. It can rebound pretty hard and fast so make sure you wear eye and mouth protection, especially if you are using it at close range.

I bought this for my son for his 4th birthday in August. He's a bit on the small side, too, but it's a great size for him. Hope that helps!

I will try to get them from my grandson who is 9 and slender... not skinny just not above slender.... he was wearing 8-10 when I ordered and the site said that's small... noo small is way to small.... ordered the medium and it fits perfectly... these run very small compared to clothes usually buy so I'd buy at least one size up.... even my seven year old couldn't fit the small... so the 8 and 10 both wrong.... we were satisfied with the medium... the price is right and the quality was comparable to the more expensive ones you buy from Dick's and other sporting goods stores good luck

best answer I can give is the product is very adjustable. My son is normal height(50-55 in) and weight(~75lbs) for a 9 year old. The product currently fits well around his arm and shoulder. I believe it will work well for him growing up. I use it myself and I'm 5' 9" 200lbs. I purchased additional ice packs/cooler to extend it's use as games. My son is a pitcher/SS. Hope this helps.

It may be a little short on him if he is tall. My son was 7 and it fit him just a bit big. He is 8 now and fits him perfectly. He is an average size kid

Hi. I agree a small would work, but only if your son likes a very snug fit. A medium would work if he likes a little more room, but still snug. If in doubt have him try on one at your local sporting goods store. Oddly enough, my 17 year old softball player daughter who's 5'7" prefers a Large. It fits snug under her jerseys but allows for more movement so she's not choking.

My son is older, but the same size. It may be a little small, but he loves it.

I purchased it for an athleticlly built kindergardner and it worked for him. Based upon that, it would seem to be short four your grand son,, but I do not recall the size I purchased versus what size you are looking at.

I feel it would be. My son was 12 at the time he purchased it. We did notice an improvement in reaction time and better form due to the low weight to size ratio. Like anything tho good , dedicated practice and good equipment is key to improvement. My son is smaller than most 12 year olds on his team and I truly feel this bat was a big help for him

Our ninth grader is very slender and can wear a medium or large. He likes a roomy fit and chooses large. I hope this helps.

Get the junior. The child I purchased it for was 5 at the time. When his dad took him sledding, he ended up using it while the child used something smaller. It's very zippy. My grand nephew is very strong and athletic. I think he would have been able to handle it. But at 4 it might be too large. Either way Amazon will exchange it if it's not right. It's a great product.

It all depends on your nephews "girth". My nephew is three and the small barely fits him. However, he is built like a NFL left tackle, wide and musculature. If your nephew is built like a linebacker or QB or WR than it should fit him just fine.

Yes, my son is 9 and likes it. He's very outdoorsy, camping, fishing, hunting, gold panning type of kid, so if yours is like that, then yes for sure.

Given that I have only bought one size, and I am a fully grown adult, it's difficult for me to recommend which one you should pick for your son. But, I did scan through the reviews to see which ones mention buying smaller sizes for their children. I came across a few that would at least come close to your son's statistics. The first one I found was bought for a 9 year old who was "Very tall" for her age, and they got her a medium. The reviewer said that if you buy a size perhaps slightly bigger than you were hoping for, the outfit comes with several straps that wrap around the waist and legs that can tighten it. (which I can confirm is true.) The only part that I've ever found to be loose is the upper chest region. I can't even seem to get that region to stay tucked in when I move around too much in the outfit. Also, another reviewer bought this for her 13 year old son who was 5'7 and 120 pounds and chose large. She said it was "a tad loose, but not too long." This is probably the example you were looking for, so listen carefully: Given the fact that you son is the same age as hers, and is both shorter and weighs less than her son, Medium might be a wiser choice - but remember I can't confirm that, I've never bought or tried any other side except for XL. At any rate, I think whether you pick medium or large everything will be fine. The medium might fit perfectly, and the large, if you decided to get that one, would at least be really comfortable, nonrestrictive to motor functions, and more importantly; he'd be able to continue using it as he ages and grows. So either decision you make I think you'll find good things about either of them. Hope I was of help.

my son is 11 & the thinks this board is very large. When I did my research, they suggested this size for kids just above his size/weight/age. I chose it because the site suggested you go up if you are straddling areas. My son is a beginning beginner too. I suggest a size down for your son unless he's really tall. (My son is 4'9"). As far as the street goes - I've had no complaints from him but he's still learning (just got his in April). Good luck :)
