Coaching points

• X dodges. The wings set picks on the crease defenders' backs, so each crease man comes over the top of his pick and curls down toward the ball.
• Point cuts the other way as the through look for a step-down shot.
• X: hit the near curl, the far curl, or the step-down up top.
• X has left the back of the cage, so after his pick the backside wing drops behind it to back up the shot.
• This is Lacrosse Unlimited's Mumbo from an X dodge, a coach's variation. The Mumbo from a top dodge is two-source.
