Rubber grips, the Light Blue stick and the Karachi King, with its distinctive orange flash, were developed in the 1930’s.  By the 1970’s glass fibre reinforcement was introduced, and since the advent of synthetic pitches, the hockey stick has changed almost completely.

Today, Grays is the market-leader in light weight composite sticks, with smaller, tighter heads for great power.  Footwear and clothing was introduced, and since the change of ruling on the composition of sticks by the FIH (International Hockey Federation) in 2000, Grays has developed the Turbo and Classic Composite concept.  Australian Jamie Dwyer scored the Gold Medal-winning goal at the Athens Olympics with his Grays GX 7000 from the Classic range.
