The Ritual Velocity 45 Junior is a premium composite stick custom-built for rapidly developing youth players. It translates the exact structural geometry of Ritual's legendary adult Velocity range into a scaled-down, highly manageable frame, making it one of the best tools for young club or academy players moving beyond basic entry-level equipment.
Key Features
-
Proportional Late Bow Profile: Built with a 24mm curve positioned smoothly down the shaft at a 250mm point from the head. This mirrors the adult model, offering young athletes a versatile platform to develop solid flat passing while easily learning advanced 3D dribbling, lifts, and drag-flicks.
-
High-Spec 45% Carbon Blend: Crafted with 45% premium carbon, 50% fiberglass, and 5% Kevlar. This composition strikes the ultimate sweet spot for competitive juniors—providing a noticeable jump in hitting and slapping power without making the stick too stiff to control.
-
Junior-Optimized Weight & Handling: Features a slimmer handle circumference and an ultra-lightweight swing balance. This allows smaller hands to maintain a secure grip and execute quick, multi-directional stick work without over-straining their wrists or forearms.
-
High-Control Silica Face: The head face is coated with a textured, gritty Silica layer (visible as the textured surface on the lower half of the stick). This increases friction against the ball, keeping it glued to the stick during tight dribbling and making clean trapping much more forgiving.
-
Hand-Shielding Shock Absorption: Features an integrated AntiShock EVA foam wrap hidden directly beneath the factory grip. This system is crucial for younger players, as it dampens heavy vibrations and completely eliminates hand sting on cold training days or during off-center hits.
