  • Playing Lacrosse: the Boulder Valley Way
    Playing Lacrosse: The Boulder Valley Way Andrew Davies 2011 edition Playing Lacrosse: The Boulder Valley Way Overview: Over the past several years, Boulder Valley Lacrosse has connected with a number of celebrated coaches and players to improve the process of player development. This manual will synthesize and simplify the various teachings of these well-known figures in the lacrosse world, including Bill Tierney, Josh Sims, Trevor Tierney, and Jamie Munro, for the benefit of our coaches and players. Offensive Philosophy: Boulder Valley Lacrosse teams should employ offenses that encourage players to dodge aggressively and play in a freelance style. Coaches should emphasize individual stick skills, toughness on groundballs, and speed in fast-break transition play. All BVL teams will use the “132” (aka “rotating triangles”) formation as their standard offensive setup, because it encourages off-ball movement and proper spacing. Odd-man situations should be practiced regularly, as these are the primary source of scoring opportunities in youth lacrosse. Teams may have a few set plays as a complement to their offense, but players should be primarily encouraged to play in the “Fun and Gun” style of lacrosse. We have no interest in creating “robots” in BVL, but rather players who understand how to move off-ball without sideline direction in order to generate shots on goal. Defensive Philosophy: All BVL teams will use an aggressive man to man defense which relies upon an early slide from the crease, and constant involvement from all seven defensive players. This style of defense is commonly known as the legendary “Princeton” defense devised by Bill Tierney.

  • Overview of Box Lacrosse Rules [Sadly, the Official CLA Rulebook Must Be Purchased: ]
    Overview of Box Lacrosse Rules [Sadly, the official CLA rulebook must be purchased: http://bcla.centraldesktop.com/bcla/media/Forms/resources/resources.pdf ] Although lacrosse is very complimentary to hockey, it is really more similar to basketball. The main similarities and differences are as follows: • Like basketball, and unlike hockey to some degree, the game of Lacrosse involves a full team offense. Everyone plays offense, and everyone plays defense. • The five offensive players are referred to as left crease, left corner, right crease, right corner & point ( centre ). • In Lacrosse many "plays" originate from the corners where players on the possession team try to "set picks" on opposing players to hopefully free up a teammate for a possible scoring opportunity. • Like basketball, there is a shot clock. A team who gains possession of the ball has 30 seconds to get a shot on net or they lose possession. • If 2 players are going after a "loose" ball they must play the ball and not check the other player until he has possession. This again can be a little misleading especially when each player is battling and jostling for the ball. If a player makes a play on the body of the opponent before making a play on the ball, this is interference and possession is awarded to the opponent. • When the ball goes out of bounds, the opponent of the team who last touched the ball gets possession. • Players cannot pass the ball to the goalie in the crease at any time. • An illegal cross-check is defined as: a) above the shoulders, b) below the waist, c) when the opponent is not on their feet, d) when a non-ball carrier is outside the dotted line on the floor.
