Patrick Iaconis one of the riskiest moves, anytime you target the backside of someone when your on their frontside you have to be 100% sure your gonna hit stick
If you miss trail behind you have a 6 foot pole if he goes to pass to crease or take a shot he has to wind up or bring the stick back, so follow behind wait till he moves his stick back and hut the head is there stick and the ball will come out, if he do sent pass or shoot play body defense and get in his hip and try to cut him off
You miss and you get beat. Not an effective check that most players can use. Most players will get beat or end up making contact with the head of an offensive player. Low percentage and not worth the risk.
So helpful, it’s really hard to find good instructional videos on defense
Where has this been all of my life 😐
I can smell all the slash calls 😂
Grizzlyman K their not slashes
Cluck Elay what I'm saying is poles will try this mess up and get a slash call
@@cluckelay6424 some refs would love to call this a slash
Thank you hartzell
Debating if I should try this in the game tomorrow
JD Blaylock did you do it tho
@@connorrydel752 tah only 10 months late
I'm 4 years late. did this yesterday and the kid ran right by me. that's why I'm here and that's also why I'm on jv. 🤣🤣
I'm an upcoming 9th grade defenseman. So much help to me.
Charchat if you’re a 9th grade defensemen you should be learning how to move your feet. Not get beat trying over the head checks
I actually already know how to keep good positioning. I've been playing for over 7 years.
@@ToniBoordane I already know how to move my feet. I'm not new to lacrosse.
@@ToniBoordane plus I got 6 takeaways using stick checks in my varsity game yesterday
Is punch the sky ideal if the offensive player has 2 hands on his stick? Even if it's exposed
How can you recover if you miss?
You dont.. The guy runs by you
