Subbing Through The Midline | POWLAX | Lacrosse

How to sub through the midline in lacrosse without losing the ball. Once your offense controls the ball, subbing a fresh midfielder in means you're briefly playing five on six. Patrick walks through the mechanic step by step: getting a defenseman over the midline, timing the second sub, and setting picks up top when the defense tries to match up. He also covers when a long pole should chase an attacker through the midline and how to get your third defenseman back on the field cleanly. ⏱ CHAPTERS 0:00 Why subbing creates a 5v6 for a moment 0:56 Timing the first sub over the midline 1:53 Setting a pick up top on the match-up 2:49 When the long pole has to chase through 3:44 Getting your third defenseman back 4:41 The three mechanics, put together ▶ Build this sub pattern free in the Play Designer: app.powlax.com/draw ▶ Install it in your team playbook with Team HQ: app.powlax.com ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🥍 Free Play Designer — build any drill or play: app.powlax.com/draw 🥍 Team HQ — practice plans, playbooks & player development: app.powlax.com 🔔 Subscribe for new lacrosse drills, strategies & coaching systems 📸 Instagram / Facebook: @POWLAX 📸 X / TikTok: @POWLAX22 📸 Linkedin: @Patrick Chapla POWLAX.
