This will be one of our "zone buster" offenses Move the ball quickly, in and out of your stick every 2 seconds We'll call this when we're in our shark offense and we will "twist" the formation sideways into a tight 2-2-2 formation the ball can be worked around the outside positions (6,1,3,4) looking for 2 and 5 working off of picks for inside passes when the ball gets to 6, the backside triangle between 2,3,4 will rotate towards the crease with a fade off to the top corner and a skip pass opportunity on a cut from top to bottom wing If you are working the righty side of the field, the 3 spot can drag the ball towards the middle of the field, drawing the top corner d pole and pass back to 2 the 2 spot will bounce out to the high wing from the crease and look for a pass from 3 2 will then have a shot or possible a one more pass to the 4 spot if the bottom pole slides the 3 spot will delay their rotation initially but will then fill the 2 spot on the crease if nothing is open the crease guy moves up into the 3 spot to reset
everything is a draw and dump here, looking to carry the d pole to the edge of his zone and throw back to the other side of his zone hoping to draw a rotation be patient, it may not be there the first time the 3 spot must be a threat to step in and shoot in order to draw that top corner d pole always be open to the ball ready to receive a pass try not to crash in, we want to draw the defense out to exploit them, crashing in tight to the crease won't give us the space we need to execute
