2v2 Earn Your Way Out Drill
Source:
US Lacrosse Berkshire School
This drill works on defensive strategies in causing turnovers and defending the fan.
Drill Description:
Start by dividing players into 2 teams. X will be attack and D will be defence.
Begin with a 2v2, attack going to goal. If a goal is scored, the coach throws a ball into the next attacking group (X), and the same defenders stay in and face the new group of attack.
To earn their way out, the defence must cause a turnover and come up with the ball. When they do, the next
set of defenders come in.
After a set time, change which team is on attack and which is on defence.
