Set Up
Take the stick away from the defender, and have an offensive player drive to 1 side of the cage. We want the defense to not let the player get top side or underneath, so they will make contact about 1 yard away from goal line extended, and drive the player out. The offensive player will run to the opposite side, try to get topside, and the defender will execute the same positioning.
Coaching Points & Principles
- Make contact about 1 yard from GLE, not allowing an inside roll so you can drive out
- Play with your feet, no stick makes you stay in positon
- Chasing a player through X, you want to be a step behind them, so you can trail properly. If you get too far in front, they can change direction and beat you to the goal
