UNSPSC 49161511: Lacrosse sticks

UNSPSC 49161511 Lacrosse sticks is a Commodity code that captures athletic equipment procurement by state and local governments, though the recent solicitation activity shows little direct demand for lacrosse sticks specifically. State and local buyers are using this code designation inconsistently; the opportunities tagged to it reflect broader athletic equipment, apparel, and law enforcement equipment sourcing rather than lacrosse-stick-specific procurement. The issuing bodies span cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit service cooperative; Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative), university athletic departments (Albany State University within the University System of Georgia), and county governments (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties in Washington), indicating that athletic equipment demand flows through both established cooperatives and direct institutional buys by schools and counties.

Recent opportunities posted in March–June 2026 include Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's Invitation for Request for Proposal ATH2628 for a catalog-discount athletic equipment and supplies contract with an estimated two-year spend of $13,523,279 (due March 26, 2026); Sourcewell's RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment available to thousands of public entities across the United States and Canada (due June 16, 2026); and Albany State University's eRFQ 52100ERFQ0000016912026 for athletic apparel, sports equipment, and customization services to support Division II intercollegiate athletics (due March 26, 2026). Activity appears concentrated in the South and Pacific Northwest (Georgia, Washington, Texas via Region 7), with broader multistate reach through cooperative purchasing frameworks. The code's current use reflects a loose tagging of athletic-equipment-adjacent procurement rather than targeted sourcing of lacrosse sticks, suggesting limited commercial opportunity under the code's nominal scope.
