Abstract

A blended lacrosse mesh and method of forming the same. The method includes providing a high performance yarn. The method also includes providing a nylon yarn, a polyester yarn or a combination of nylon and polyester yarn. The method also includes forming a lacrosse mesh product from the high performance yarn and the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn or the combination of nylon and polyester yarn, wherein the high performance yarn forms an inlay and the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn or the combination of nylon and polyester yarn forms a stitch.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method of forming lacrosse mesh, the method comprising:
 providing a high performance yarn;   providing a nylon yarn, a polyester yarn and/or a combination thereof; and   forming a lacrosse mesh product from the high performance yarn and the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn or the combination of nylon and polyester yarn, wherein the high performance yarn forms an inlay and the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn or the combination of nylon and polyester yarn forms a stitch.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the high performance yarn is an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the high performance yarn is stronger than the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn and/or the combination thereof. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the high performance yarn is water proof, resistant to acid, resistant to alkali, and resistant to UV light. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the nylon yarn, polyester yarn or combination of nylon and polyester yarn receives a preservative. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the nylon yarn, polyester yarn or combination of nylon and polyester yarn receives a color. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the high performance yarn comprises a nominal elongation factor of about 3.5%. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the high performance yarn forms a core of the blended lacrosse mesh. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the blended mesh maintains a consistent pocket due to the nominal elongation factor. 
     
     
         10 . A method of using a blended mesh, the method comprising:
 stringing a blended mesh of high performance yarn and one of a nylon yarn, a polyester yarn and/or a combination thereof to a lacrosse head, wherein the high performance yarn forms an inlay and the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn and/or the combination thereof forms a stitch of the blended mesh;   forming a pocket in the blended mesh; and   maintaining a consistent pocket shape.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the high performance yarn is an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the high performance yarn is stronger than the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn and/or the combination thereof. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the high performance yarn is water proof, resistant to acid, resistant to alkali, and resistant to UV light. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the nylon yarn, polyester yarn or combination of nylon and polyester yarn receives a preservative. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the nylon yarn, polyester yarn or combination of nylon and polyester yarn receives a color. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the high performance yarn comprises a nominal elongation factor of about 3.5%. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein the high performance yarn forms a core of the blended lacrosse mesh. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein maintaining a consistent pocket includes maintaining a nominal elongation factor of about 3.5% in the blended mesh. 
     
     
         19 . A blended lacrosse mesh comprising:
 a high performance yarn; and   a nylon yarn, a polyester yarn and/or a combination thereof, wherein the high performance yarn forms a core of the blended lacrosse mesh and the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn and/or the combination thereof forms a stitch.   
     
     
         20 . The blended lacrosse mesh of  claim 19 , wherein the high performance yarn is an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. 
     
     
         21 . The blended lacrosse mesh of  claim 19 , wherein the high performance yarn is stronger than the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn and/or the combination thereof. 
     
     
         22 . The blended lacrosse mesh of  claim 19 , wherein the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn and/or the combination thereof receives a preservative. 
     
     
         23 . The blended lacrosse mesh of  claim 19 , wherein the nylon yarn, the polyester yarn and/or the combination thereof receives a color. 
     
     
         24 . The blended mesh of  claim 19 , further comprising a nominal elongation factor of about 3.5%.
