Eight Lacrosse Drills YOU Need to Learn

#5 Bump and Shed

Key Requirements

Gear: Mouth Guard, Game Shoes, Stick, Pads (Optional)
Time: +/- 10 Minutes
Members: 5+ (2 Defensemen, 1 Player as center decoy, 2 Coaches or Feeders)
Communication Points: Shouting “bump” “go” and “I’m going”

Get Started

  • To begin, the Defender #1 sprints to cover the ball, then sits in an athletic stance.
  • Defender #2 slides between the attack in the middle and the ball, with his butt pointed to the ball side, sideline.
  • Simultaneous with those actions, the Defender #2 will be yelling “I’m Go or Going.”
  • As the ball moves between the cones, the players shuffle with it. Defender #2’s butt should be changing direction while keeping his eyes up and a stick on the attack.
  • Once a pass is made across the defense, Defender #1 quickly recovers to the middle while yelling “Bump!”
  • Defender #2 will now slide out to cover the ball and Defender #1 becomes the “Go Man.”
  • The process is repeated until each player has covered the ball and the attackman in the middle with proper technique and speed.
