As teams gear up for another season, we get a lot of questions about lacrosse wrap design. Coaches want to know what’s popular with other teams and want to see examples as they gather ideas for their own helmets. While each team is unique, it can be helpful to see some ideas for inspiration. To that end, we thought we would share a few of our favorite wraps in production right now.

Part of the typical pre-season lacrosse prep is pulling out equipment, checking everything over, and giving it a good cleaning. If you plan on applying decals or a lacrosse helmet wrap this season, it is especially important to start with a clean helmet. Last seasons, dirt, sweat, and body oil can all act as a barrier between the helmet and the adhesive of the decals. These contaminants reduce the stickiness and make the decals more likely to peel back at the edges as the season progresses.

When Carroll University reached out to us to design decals for their helmets, we were pumped. Known as Wisconsin’s pioneer college, Carroll University was the first four-year college in the state. Founded in 1846, with only five students and two faculty members, Carroll is a school rich with history.

Wheeling Jesuit University has trusted JackWraps with the design and production of their lacrosse helmet decals for the last three seasons. In 2015, they opted for a traditional side decal set featuring their “WJU” logo. The following year they stepped up their look and went with oversized Cardinal side decals and stripes in a flashy chrome red. In 2017 they were looking for something different. WJU just purchased new Cascade R helmets in matte black and wanted a fresh, clean look to make a statement.

Lacrosse is the last of a dying breed. This is so because it is one of the only remaining sports where the players and coaches can actively style part of their uniform. If you could show some personality and stand out in every game you would want to do it correctly, right? Coincidentally, a lot of teams are competing to have equipment with the most personality or coolest design. Since there is so much competition and pressure to personalize, get it done right the first time. If you are purchasing your helmet wraps, make sure that you avoid these common mistakes:
