shot should be a sweep of stick on their reverse just before ball reaches them, putting power behind sweep
- attacker's stick makes contact with the ball as it comes level with right foot

- grip with both hands at top of stick
- low body position to ground throughout pass needed to sweep entire stick along floor - maximises power
- correct footwork enables low body position to be maintained without losing balance
- feet sideways, step to meet ball
- knees bent
- stick should contact ball when its positioning just in front of/level with right foot about a hockey stick length away from body
- stick swept along floor flatly in large horizontal arc
- ideally - contact made with ball using shaft of stick a few inches after from the head of stick
