INTERMEDIATE POWER PLAYS

6C. Middle Player Vacate - "Down Picks"

• Players on the outside pass the ball around the horn and when the ball gets back to the weak-side shooter position, the ball is passed low and both shooters down-pick for the crease players, on‐ball slightly before off-ball. 

• The player in the middle simultaneously vacates the middle up into the point position (Option #1), otherwise either of the off-ball players are likely to be open (Option #2 & #3).

6D. Middle Player Vacate - "Cross-Picks"

• Players on the outside pass the ball around the horn and when the ball gets back to the weak-side shooter position, the ball is passed low and both shooters cut the middle and pick on the far-side crease player ("cross-pick"), off‐ball leaving slightly before on-ball. 

• The player in the middle simultaneously vacates the middle up into the point position (Option #1), otherwise either of the crease players coming around the picks are likely to be open (Option #2 & #3).
