A lacrosse stick might often be slick, especially when it's raining or wet outside. An extra issue is that you're wearing your gloves, so the shaft is even slicker. However, taping might be an effective solution to this problem. Taping your stick adds a more comfortable grip to your arms, and you can have a better handle on the stick. You can also improve the power you get when shooting. Various players state taping can also serve as a teaching aid. So, putting the tape around the bottom part of the stick where your lower hand holds it provides a better grip when holding the stick at the bottom. In addition, you can, for example, tape the part of the stick that you're holding with your top hand when catching or throwing the ball. Thus, your hand will find precisely where it must be to throw, pass, catch, or shoot the ball. You can tape the stick in box lacrosse as well.
