Great video from Tier Lacrosse on basic lacrosse catching fundamentals which supports the previous post about deep bag pockets creating bad habits in young lacrosse players. This is one of the most basic of fundamentals, but is often where many bad habits can start and can have a very negative effect as the player grows. This is especially important for Northern lacrosse players, many of whom I see snatching and twisting the ball out of the air when they catch. This video emphasizes the importance of catching the ball with soft hands. Just watching the first few minutes is very educational for young players.
