Warrior's CR3 SE senior goalie stick provides recreational goalies with a composite stick that provides good feel as well as pop and ability to shoot the puck.
The Minimus 600 carbon construction of the Warrior CR3 SE senior goal stick is at the core of the light and balanced feel of the stick. The Minimus 600 provides a solid amount of pop, especially for a recreational level goalie stick. The Minimus 600 carbon construction is also reinforced with TwinSpar technology to increase consistency and durability across the paddle.
The CR3 SE also features VibexLite technology in the shaft to minimize vibration and maintain a foam core like feel not seen on most composite sticks. The shaft also features an extra layer of reinforcement called Impact Fiber to ensure that the stick stays durable and stiff over its life.
The most striking feature of the Warrior CR3 SE SR goalie stick is the explosive colours they come in. Offering a Sport Gold, Royal and Red the CR3 is sure to look sharp no matter what set you need to match it to.

Goalie Stick Sizing Information
Unlike other pieces of gear, Goalie Sticks are sized mostly to the goaltender’s preference and playing style rather than their height. The most important measurement, when purchasing a new goal stick, is the paddle height (the wide portion of the stick), which is usually taken from the heel of the stick to the shaft/paddle interface. The reason for the paddle height’s significance is because it sets up the goaltender’s depth in the ready stance and (if properly sized) positions the blocker in an optimal position.
Sizing Your Goalie Stick
To start analyzing the size of your goalie stick, put on your goalie skates to get an accurate height of where you will be in your stance. If you’re looking to be even more accurate, strap on your goalie pads and blocker as well. Once that is done, get comfortable in your natural stance (the one you’d be in during a majority of gameplay) and look for the following:
1. The entire blade of the stick is flush with the ground while being 1’ - 2’ in front of your feet
2. After getting your stick into the flush position, check that the inside edge of the blocker hand sits on the outside edge of the goal pad (this is while holding just above the paddle).
Goalie Stick Sizing Considerations
Goalie Stick sizing can be very subjective compared to other pieces of equipment. The reason for this is the ambiguity of each goaltenders ‘natural stance’, especially with younger goaltenders. It is rather common for children to use taller sticks in comparison to their height, as their stance depth isn’t usually as aggressive as a seasoned goalie.
The shaft length of a goalie stick is usually best left at its stock length, as it serves to counteract the weight of the blade and ideally place the center of gravity at the top of the paddle. The one exception to this rule is for advanced puck handlers, cutting the shaft will allow more power transfer when shooting as a result of being able to keep the blade flush to the ice while near the goaltender’s feet.
