Bauer S26 GSX JR. Goal Stick

The Bauer S26 GSX Junior Goalie Stick is built for younger goalies who need a dependable composite stick that is simple to control and priced for regular use. Carbon Glass construction and an Expancel core create a durable, vibration-dampened paddle, while the reinforced short shaft helps keep the stick close to the body. A traditional square shoulder and P31 rounded-toe blade give developing players a familiar platform for stance work, rebound control and basic puckhandling.

Bauer S26 GSX junior goalie stick features

• Carbon Glass paddle: A blend of carbon and fibreglass creates a durable, approachable paddle for goalies developing their technique.
• Expancel foam core: Lightweight foam inside the paddle helps reduce vibration and keeps the stick easier to manage than traditional heavier constructions.
• Reinforced 28-inch short shaft: The shorter shaft improves playability around the crease while carbon-glass reinforcement supports everyday durability.
• Traditional square shoulder: Squared paddle shoulders provide a familiar blocker-hand reference point and a consistent grip during saves.
• P31 goalie curve: The established mid-curve pattern supports basic puckhandling, rim stops and outlet passes.
• Rounded blade toe: A rounded toe moves smoothly along the ice and is forgiving when younger or newer goalies collect loose pucks.

Who should choose this goalie stick?

This junior model is best for new and developing minor-hockey goalies who require a 21-inch or 22-inch paddle. It is easier to manage than a stick purchased too large for future growth and helps the blocker hand remain in a more natural position. The TGC listing includes black, red and blue graphics, regular left-hand options and a black full-right option in selected sizing.
