CCM FTW Part 3: A Tool for Scoring – Introducing the CCM FTW Hockey Stick, Optimized for Female Players

Many female players are forced to choose their sticks from men’s or junior selections. The problem is often that men’s stick shafts are too thick for smaller hands, while junior stick blade sizes and lengths do not meet the demands of the adult game. The CCM FTW stick eliminates these challenges by offering the perfect combination of power, control, and ergonomics.

Thinner shaft geometry for the perfect grip

One of the most important features of a stick is how it fits in the glove. If the shaft is too thick, your grip slips, your hands tire more quickly, and your puck feel diminishes.

• Ergonomic FTW shaft design: The CCM FTW stick features a narrower and thinner shaft geometry than standard models. This makes the stick easier to handle, improves grip, and allows for faster, more precise dekes. You will feel the puck on the blade better in every game situation.

Optimized flex profile – Maximum shot power with less effort

To get the full power out of a hockey stick, the shaft must flex during the shot. If the stick is too stiff for the player's weight and strength levels, the shot becomes slow and ineffective.

• Flex profiles tailored for female players: The flex profiles of FTW sticks are designed to provide optimal flexibility and snappy energy return without the player needing to weigh 90 kilograms. The stick loads and releases energy quickly, making wrist shots and one-timers significantly more effective.

Full-size blade for precise puck control

Unlike junior sticks, where the blade is often shorter and shallower, the CCM FTW stick combines a narrower shaft with a full-size adult blade. This means you get the lightness and maneuverability of a junior stick, but you don't have to compromise on blade surface area when receiving passes or battling in front of the net.
