Give an offensive player the ball, with a defender guarding them. They will run about 50%, and the offensive player will stop, go, change direction, within a 10-15 yard space. The defender must run under control thinking about staying balanced and maintaining proper stick positioning
Coaching Points & Principles
Stay balanced and player under control. Defend with your feet, not your stick!
Try to keep your stick upfield in the direction where the player is running
You want to trail slightly and not overplay or underplay the space
