Full Field Transition/Half Field Unsettled: Drills for Unsettled Situations

with Kevin Corrigan,
University of Notre Dame Men's Lacrosse Coach

Coach Corrigan presents full field and half field transition philosophies as well as breaks down "some of the best transition and unsettled drills that he has ever seen." Corrigan's teaching begins with the two-on-one recovery drill and a two-on-one live ball drill that makes players react and attack the net. Also included are spacing and transition drills. Next, he presents the defense to offense scheme. This occurs after a save or a shot is taken on the defensive end. Corrigan also includes the full field scramble, which involves many players at once. In all, this DVD is loaded with 14 drills. Multiple situations and repetitions are the benefits of these drills, which are done in a short amount of time. Coaching can be done before and after the drills, with an emphasis on repetition.

with Kevin Corrigan,
University of Notre Dame Men's Lacrosse Coach

This DVD focuses on individual drills used on a daily basis at Notre Dame. Ball handling, ground balls and shooting drilled early in practice develop good habits that show up later in team play at practice. Drills included are ball bag drill, yo-yo drill, baseline escape, around the clock, escape drill, 2 v. 1 drill, three man handle, three man passing, monkey in the middle, three man weave and three in a box. Ball handling is another area that demands attention each day in practice. The step down drill, the sweeps and alley dodges, give and go, Z cut shooting, Z cut and follow, Z cut and pop, and Z cut and fade are all demonstrated. The advantages of these drills are that players get a lot of touches on the ball, shooting opportunities, and many repetitions.
