Ritual Reflex Shootout Goalie Stick (2023/24)

The Ritual Reflex Shootout Goalie Stick is a specialist field hockey goalkeeper's stick built for the pressure of one-on-one penalty situations, and it suits experienced keepers who want a shorter, more manoeuvrable option when facing a penalty stroke or shootout.

Built on the same platform as Ritual's flagship Reflex goalkeeper stick, the Shootout is constructed from 50% Japanese carbon fibre and features Ritual's triple-wall construction, which delivers impressive lateral and torsional stiffness to help keepers hold their shape under pressure. The head has been pushed to the absolute limit of FIH regulations, making it deliberately oversized for maximum stopping surface area, exactly what you need when a striker is bearing down on goal.

The mid-curve design, straight handle and 90° face give the Reflex Shootout a traditional, confident feel in the hand, while the 22mm bow height provides a reliable, predictable contact point for deflections and clearances. At 510g, it carries a solid, reassuring weight without feeling cumbersome. The shorter length of the Shootout variant makes it quicker to manoeuvre in tight, reactive situations, giving keepers a real advantage in those high-stakes moments.
