How do you catch a lacross stick?
Provide a target by placing the pocket of your lacrosse stick just above your shoulder and next to your ear. This is often referred to as the "box" and is the best place to catch a pass. The stick should cross your body, not be off to the side. If your teammate doesn't see you're open call out for the pass. Step 2
Hold your top hand just below the middle of the stick and your lower hand at the bottom. Not all passes will come in at the perfect place so be ready to adjust your stick and hand placement as needed. Step 3
Relax your arms as the ball approaches and allow the stick to "give" a little. The faster the ball is coming at you the more you'll need to lean your stick back to absorb its velocity. This will prevent the ball from bouncing off the pocket. Watch the ball all the way into your pocket before making your next move. Step 4
Cradle the ball as soon as it's in your pocket to secure it, keeping your stick close to your body. When you have possession of the ball be ready to run, pass or shoot immediately.
