Dita Field Hockey Sticks

The History of Dita Field Hockey Sticks

Toward the end of the nineteenth century Allah Dita pioneered the production of field hockey sticks, cricket bats, and table tennis paddles; in what was then the undivided sub-continent of India.  His goods were made for both for the local and export markets.

The original field hockey sticks did not bear the brand name Dita.  The Dita brand name came about as homage to the founder of the company by his son, K. M. Iqbal.  The family run business is moving into its fourth generation of producing high quality, handcrafted field hockey sticks.  The field hockey stick that put Dita on the map is the international benchmark stick, the Dita Mega Pro, now known as the Dita Mega X 750.

Dita started combining fiberglass and other materials in 1972, with the aim of creating the best possible field hockey stick available for the demands of the then new turf game, introducing the Dita Mega Pro to the world at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics.

Dita has become the premier field hockey stick for international professionals largely because of the superior technology and field hockey sticks that are tweaked to the specifications of the best field hockey players in the world.  The FIH Player-of-the-Year, Teun de Nooijer, uses Dita field hockey sticks exclusively to dominate international field hockey play
