This is an offensive scheme that can be the foundation of an offense at every level. With all the plays and schemes I have seen I have come back to doing this so many times. I figured if my guys could completely master this concept, combined with 2-3 killer plays, I am good to go. This can also be used as a man up scheme too. This premise can also be applied to other sets as shown in a 1-4-1.

These very simple 2 or 3 man plays are easy to teach, they do not need the full coordination of the entire team and they work. This can work as an inbound play, a subtle call between the dodger and the men in the crease or if done enough can be a natural part of the offense. This is a great play for beginners as it is a very simple 3 man play.

This is a very simple technique that could be taught to your players. Especially if they come from a Basketball or Box Lacrosse Background. You could have call for this but the end goal would be for them to recognize when to do this on their own during live play.

The best part about this play is how quickly you can run it over and over in a possession by simply throwing the ball across the top of the field and immediately initiating again. After running this play a few times in a row on a single possession the defenders’ heads will be spinning!

This man up play follows the basic concept of overloading a side of the zone and forcing a defender in a zone to cover multiple players and/or communicate with his teammates at a high level.

This is a great man up play out of a 2-3-1 set as it has many looks in the course of the rotation, overloads to one side and ends in the same set it began in making it easy to continue with your offense.
