Backyard Lacrosse Shooting Drills
You don’t need a full team to practice your shot. If you have a net and some balls, you can drastically improve your game. These lacrosse shooting drills are designed to be done alone.
Time and Room Shooting
- Set up a bucket of balls 12 yards from the net.
- Catch a stationary pass (or flip it to yourself).
- Step hard into your shot, pointing your front toe at the target.
- Follow through completely.
Pro Tip: Your core generates power, not your arms. Turn your hips violently as you release the ball to add miles per hour to your shot.
On the Run Shooting
You will rarely have time to set your feet in a game.
- Start at the top of the box.
- Sprint down the alley.
- Shoot across your body to the far pipe.
Conclusion
Repetition is the only way to become a sniper. Make these lacrosse shooting drills part of your daily routine.
