Dodging from X out of an open set
In an open set with two triangles, a dodger at X creates space by attacking the goal while one adjacent player cuts to the crease and the other rotates to X for a rollback option. This setup ensures scoring opportunities through quick passes, open midfield shots, or an uncontested dodge if no slide comes.
1-4-1 to 2-2-2 Transition: Disrupting Defenses and Elevating Scoring Opportunities
Transitioning from a 1-4-1 to a 2-2-2 open offense confuses defensive slide packages by removing players from the crease, making it harder for defenders to anticipate responsibilities. This shift also positions all offensive players as scoring threats above GLE, maximizing space and creating diverse shooting options.
About the Circle 2 Set
This a great offensive set if you want to run a two man game from up top or behind without having anybody in the crease thereby opening up space and making slides more complicated.
Settled Weave
The Settled Weave in lacrosse is a masterclass for handling high-pressure defenses. Imagine weaving through defenders with precision, creating seamless opportunities and maintaining control of the ball. This strategy not only defuses intense pressure but also orchestrates an elegant dance of movement and teamwork, turning chaos into controlled, strategic play.
Adjacent Triangle Rotation Man Up
It may look chaotic, but it is actually very simple. Two triangles rotate simultaneously and continuously towards the goal, from top to bottom and across from each other. This constant motion keeps the offense dynamic and the defense off balance, creating numerous opportunities for scoring.
Open Set Double Mumbo Pop
Maybe you love the double mumbo pop but a circle offense is more in line with your offense then a 1-4-1 with two men in the crease.
