A pair of floating ribs corresponding to each of the pair of sidewalls is provided. Each of the floating ribs has a first end and a second end separated by a middle portion wherein the first end is joined proximal the throat and the second end is joined proximal the side wall and a segment of the middle portion is not attached to the sidewall. The socket is provided with an inner perimeter and outer perimeter. The outer perimeter has a proximal end proximal a mouth for receiving the lacrosse handle and a distal end distal the proximal end, the distal end being larger than the proximal end. The outer perimeter is substantially smooth.
