Make your defender trip

Mikey Powell: Drive Defender Into Crease

When playing behind the goal, try to force your defender to run through the crease to guard you. If you’re able to change directions while your defender is running through the crease, he will be forced to step over the back of the goal (which extends all the way to the back of the crease) to guard you. There’s a good chance that he will catch his cleat in the back of the lacrosse goal and trip at least once if you make him step over the back of the goal a few times.
