6 v 6 & Unsettled Offense

More difficult than ever to score 6v6. Defenses are more elaborate with

scouting. Offensive sets designed to give a good

look at the cage…react to missed shot or rebound.

How do you want to play? Up tempo, slow it down? What is best for your team?

What do you want your team to do in unsettled situations? What do they see/hear in practice?

Square peg in a round hole.

1-4-1 Popping Offense

Hofstra/Hopkins – Seth Tierney Beg, borrow & steal. Watch games. We have been a middie dominated offense. Most dodges are from mids - up top or

wing. Run your set & then let them play. Need players who can breakdown defense

& force a slide. Identify them & go with it. Need shooters (8-10 yds) & crease players. Do you have personnel to fill these spots?

1-4-1 - Switch(Mumbo)

1-4-1 - Half

1-4-1 - Wing dodge

Great spot to dodge from - different angle.

Usually have a mid dodge a SS in this set. What is the defender giving you? React. Usually will take away top side…carry

him higher to create more space underneath.

Dodge to score…if you draw a slide you have options, move the ball.

WHITE BOARD.

1-4-1 - Clear

Good set to create space for mid up top. Same action for other players as wing

dodge. Practice clearing thru…2 man game. Many defenders will look to double on the

clear, move the ball and play. Dodge to score, draw the slide, move the

ball. WHITE BOARD

22 Stack

Same looks out of a different set. In this set you really have three 2 man

teams. Work together on the 2 man games to

create opportunities. Pop or Pop Wing looks. Have to run by your man to force a slide. Be active inside…might catch a defender

sleeping. WHITE BOARD

22 Stack – pop & pop wing

Middie dodge from up top with several variations…mix it up.

Timing is critical on all sets…practice skeleton.

We will run thru a few sets everyday…can use this to work on stickwork & shooting as well.

If you have that dominant attackman use him within this offense to attack from behind.
