Putting Your Big-Little Invert On Steroids

Rolling a 3rd player behind the net on Big-Little Inverts  is a simple and incredibly effective way to create a very challenging situation for the defense.  In this 3man action behind, the law of "Addition by Subtraction" is in full effect, opening up the middle and leaving a 3v3 in front of the net.  

• Single invert, a slide leaves 4 to cover 5
• Big-Little invert, slide leaves 3 to cover 4
• 3man Action, a slide leaves 2 to cover 3

3man actions create complexity of communication and decision making for the defense yet are surprisingly easy for the offense.  Think about this, you're on...

Podcasts This Week

The Inside the 8 Podcast with Colleen Magarity this week we focus on college lacrosse recruiting and the topic is "Reclassing."   This phenomenon occurs all the time in men's lacrosse and has been happening in women's lacrosse as well, but now with the NCAA Dead Period having effected so many kids' recruitment combined with the NCAA granting an extra year of eligibility to four years of college athletes , we will likely see more of it.  Colleen and I go into depth on how it works, how college coaches view Reclassing, and we cover frequently asked questions.  Click Here to listen to this podcast!
