The wing dodge out of a 1-4-1 uses player movement to create space for the ball carrier and make defensive slides more difficult. By rotating the crease and wing players before the dodge, the offense can open the middle and create a passing option from the far side.
The offense begins in a 1-4-1 formation. The ball starts on the wing, with two players positioned in the crease and wing players spread across the offensive set.
Before the dodge begins, the players rotate.
The two players in the crease clear toward the wings, moving toward the areas where the original wing players started. At the same time, the wing players move toward the crease.
