JOIN NOWshooting around freaky tall defenders
Our shooters are mid height and we have a game coming up in two weeks where both defenders are freakishly tall...Apart from stepping sideways or back to take shot is their any other advice u have to get around this?

Typically, tall defenders unless they are representative players haven`t been taught to move around the circle well. Try teaching your shooters how to work the circle and work together to get the ball in. Try swinging the circle or have the GS hold front towards the post and have your GA run the top of the circle and hopefully one of the defenders will leave the front position open. Also try teaching the girls to step around the hands. Hope that helps
