Throw Down, Pick Down is an offensive lacrosse play built around two pairs of players working on opposite sides of the field. Using coordinated passes, picks, and off-ball movement, the play creates driving lanes, passing options, and scoring opportunities around the goal.
The basic action starts when a player passes the ball down the side and follows the pass to set a pick for the receiver. At the same time, the opposite pair runs a similar action to give the offense another attacking option.
The play begins with two offensive pairs positioned on opposite sides of the field, with one player at X and another around the crease.
On the ball side, the player passes the ball down toward their teammate, then follows the pass to set a pick. The receiver uses the pick to attack toward the middle.
