INTERMEDIATE POWER PLAYS

2B. Dice – "Double Up-Pick"

• The play is triggered with a pass from the weak-side shooter to the strong-side shooter, at which point the weak-side crease player up-picks for the weak-side shooter and the middle player up-picks for the strong-side shooter.

• Both shooters run underneath the picks and the ball carrier either shoots (Option #2), passes to the off-ball shooter for a quick stick shot (Option #1), who can also pass crease-to-crease for a quick stick shot (Option #3).

2C. Dice – "Back-Door Skip Pass"

• The play is triggered by a pass from the strong-side shooter to the same-side crease player.

• The shooter follows their pass to the crease as the middle player down-picks for the same-side crease player.

• The crease player carries the ball toward the middle and shoots (Option #2), passes to the far-side shooter who moves down to the soft spot for a shot (Option #1), or quick stick passes to the strong-side shooter who subsequently fills the strong-side crease position (Option #3).
