Coaching points
- The goalie's outlets, in order: up the field where the shot came from; across the middle (if she throws accurately); the midfielder on the other side of the shooter; left behind; then right behind.
- A right-handed goalie turns to the left side of the goal, stick away from the cage, to look left behind. Then, still in the circle, she moves behind the goal to look right behind.
- She has 10 seconds to clear her circle. If nothing is open, she steps out behind the goal and starts a settled clear.
- From US Lacrosse's Level 2 workbook ("out the door"). The 10-second count is the rule book's.
