foot further to the dribbler’s left.) all the way across from outside the base of the feet. left before then pulling back right) Movements: Weight is planted onto the left foot to drive back across to the right and the ball is pulled flat across the body (or slightly backwards). 1 – Knees should remain bent over the ball. 2 – Weight should be on the left foot. 3 – As the stick makes contact on the left side of the ball, the head, right shoulder, and left knee should be in a straight vertical line. #1 – To move quickly, weight is shifted from one foot to the other shifting the center of gravity. #2 – The production of maximum requires the use of all joints than can be used. #3 – The production of maximum velocity requires the use of joints in order from largest to smallest. Observe face on to see the contact point between the stick and the ball. Look for the transfer of weight onto the left foot and a hard push off the ground back to the right. The Critical Instant: Stick releases contact with the ball to rotate and receive the ball on the right side of the body. 1 – Weight transfers from the left foot to the right foot. 2 – Left wrist begins to rotate back to initial dribbling position 3 – Pull should be completely across the defender’s base so that the ball ends outside the #4 – The greater the applied impulse, the greater the increase in velocity (the longer the stick and ball are together in the ball, the greater the applied impulse). #5 – Movement usually occurs in the direction Observe face on. Focus on the stick and ball remaining together throughout the entire pull until the wrist rotates the stick back to the right side of the ball. Ensure that the pull is as long
