ok here goes
The Crosse: The crosse (lacrosse stick) is made of wood, laminated wood or synthetic material, with a shaped net pocket at the end. The crosse must be an overall length of 40 - 42 inches for attackmen and midfielders, or 52 - 72 inches for defensemen. The head of the crosse must be 6.5 - 10 inches wide, except a goalie's crosse which may be 10 - 12 inches wide. The pocket of a crosse shall be deemed illegal if the top surface of a lacrosse ball, when placed in the head of the crosse, is below the bottom edge of the side wall.

Rule 1, Sec. 6, 7 and 8 of the NFHS rules give a more complete description of a legal crosse, including the tests that a stick must pass when the ref checks it.

Also, Appendix I of the NCAA rules (you can download these at NCAA) gives a good picture.
