DESCRIPTION

This is one option we could use off of a mid field penalty. The objective of the play is to target the third defender from the right. The playmaker would tap, then take a hard cut left and fake left, then accelerate hard to the right. 

Options:

  1. If the third defender bites too hard on the fake left and the second defender from the right bites on the crash line, then the playmaker will be through untouched. 
  2. If the third defender still bites hard but the second defender targets the playmaker, feed the crash line 
  3. Both the playmaker and crash line are covered, hit the out the back charlie line 

This play can be ran either left or right. We will make a call as to which way we will attack based on the defense. A good defense will split evenly 3 and 3, but if they give a 4-2 option than obviously we will go to the short side
