The Top 5 Best Lacrosse Dodges (UNGUARDABLE!)

[@henrylord1368]

The Canadian part of the face dodge is so true I hate going to my off hand

[@Logankinsinger]

I'm very american and u completely agree

[@JohnSmith-ph7dk]

counters for defensive players: Split dodge: a well timed poke check to knock the ball out works really well, watching their hips is how you dont end up on the highlight reel, because a good attackman will throw a headfake. Roll dodge: when a bad attackman rolls he might leave his stick hanging behind him for an easy take away check, also if youre strong enough to push them back so the roll isnt as effective that works too, the last thing is positioning, if youre in good position and take a good approach the roll can be rendered completely ineffective. face dodge: a can opener check can be effective once the stick is across their face, but mostly you just want to take a good approach angle and not lunge at the attackman. re dodge: they have to use a dodge in the re dodge, so knowing how to stop the dodge used in the redodge is how you counter it. Question mark: Stopping them before they get to 5 and 5, or the island. Ideally you want to turn them at GLE, but if they do get to 5 and 5, someone who has less expierience with this dodge will telegraph it, and sometimes leave their hands exposed for an easy lift check, also, pushing them hard enough once they initiate the dodge can throw them off.

Glad I found your channel this video really helped and I’m gonna try these in practice, keep the great work up🔥

Thank you for this. I have never played lacrosse and now I know about the split dodge.

[@jakerevzan2341]

this helps a ton!!! Keep making videos!!! Its my second year playing lacrosse and these tips have greatly improved my game. Keep it up!!

[@LaxWeekly]

Thanks Jake- awesome to hear!! Do you want more beginner-focused videos? Lmk if there's anything specific you want to see!

[@jakerevzan2341]

@@LaxWeekly maybe do a video focusing on off ball movement.

[@LaxWeekly]

@@matthewwalsh4257 Hi Matthew thank you for the feedback. I definitely want to do defense videos in the future. For now I'm focusing on offense since it's my area of expertise. Hopefully I'll get another team member on who can do defense

Could you make a vid on how to guard these as a d middie. thanks

[@jakecarlson2263]

Thanks man! Super helpful

[@Belovelyava]

New sub, my boys and I will be looking forward to your newsletter! Thank you!

[@matthewferrari6734]

Was hoping you'd go more into the variants of the dodges, especially face dodge, which I'd argue that the first example highlight you used was more of a toe drag rather than a face. But I'd still call a toe drag a variant of a face dodge; personally I find as a goalie on the clear, a pull back for a fake pass up-field into a toe drag is extremely effective. But still a great video, subbed, excited to see more

[@LaxWeekly]

Thanks Matthew. Definitely agree with you. What videos would you like to see?

[@trentonsheffer5198]

Coming from football to lacrosse I find myself not dodging as much as I should be the only time I really dodge is when I know I can't beat them with strength

[@sss1st]

My 13 year old complains of kids slashing him in practice, your suggestions on this issue? thank you.

[@micahhradil2551]

there isnt a way to stop other people from slashing

[@LaxWeekly]

Unfortunately there's no way to stop other kids from doing it, but he can try to wear more padding. Is there a specific place he keeps getting hit?

[@sss1st]

Lax Weekly shoulders

[@hughmungus8320]

It’s not a slash unless it’s above the shoulders

[@LaxWeekly]

@@sss1st Hmm. The only thing I'd say is wear better shoulder pads. Like AttackMan43 said, it's usually not a slash if they hit your shoulders

This is a good video but don’t feel like you have to try and use these do what makes sense use a face dodge if you need dont try to do a role dodge if you don’t need to

[@LaxWeekly]

I agree Cod! Only use which dodges you need to do

[@natecooper1896]

[@griffinbatten1995]

I think you’re confusing a fake shot with a face dodge.

[@Qunn_]

I’m VEEERY fast so I like a one head fake with a push off and a stick move then dash the other way and the defense is always 1 step behind me and if they catch up mid run stop for less that 1 second then go again because if done at the right time the defense is gone and no one can slide fast enough to get me giving me an open shot plus I’m short so they don’t expect it and can’t check me easily

[@kase1993]

lol “Canadians use this move because they’re known for only using their dominant hand.” Yeah okay

[@duckstuart9106]

I think this was patched

[@rustyking5099]

no swim? lmao

[@wyattmiller4696]

These dodges aren't undefendable the defense is just trash in these videos. Looks like the fogo or offensive middies got stuck on D.

[@LaxWeekly]

Hey Wyatt! Thank you for your comment. I definitely agree sometimes the defense was poor. I will say, all of these guys are either D1 college lacrosse players or pro players, so they are the best of the best defenders in all of lacrosse.
