Attackers choose to either run the line and go past the defender or pass around the defender
The Defender attempts to Channel the attacker and cannot leave their coloured box...if tackled the attackers get the ball back and proceed to next defender.
Attackers:
Run with stick on the ball at all times
Disguised Passes - Look down line and pass left/right
Time your pass - get close to defender but not too close
High Skill - Pop pass(a 3D skill where we just lift gently the ball over the defenders stick into space for our teammate to run onto
GoalScoring Element -Run into the D along the baseline towards keeper "draw the keeper" and then push pass to teammate for them to deflect or slap/push into goal. If teammate is square of you (the same side as you of the P stop) they are setting up to push/flick the ball into goal. If they position themselves closer to far post you need to push the pass very hard so they can just deflect the ball into goal. Your pass changes depending where they are.
