Becoming a Champion Lacrosse Player with Gary Gait: Shooting Techniques & Drills
Price: $39.99
Shooting is more complex than just throwing the ball at the goal. It involves body mechanics, using the stick, deception and developing different shots around the field. Focusing on push-pull, lacrosse legend Gary Gait begins with the basic shot. The same basic form can be aided by different release points, demonstrated by the game's greatest player. From a basic position, the player can accurately change the direction of the shot. Deception is another big part of developing skill as a shooter, and Gait shows proper body position for high and low shots. Gait clearly details the mechanics and teaching points used in deceptive shooting. 44 Minutes.

 

Becoming a Champion Lacrosse Player with Gary Gait: Stick Tricks & Dodging
Price: $39.99
In this one-of-a-kind DVD, lacrosse legend Gary Gait demonstrates the skills that has earned him the distinction of being called the "greatest lacrosse player of all time". Starting with the lacrosse stick, Gait carefully details the stick and the pocket. The basic cradle is dictated by the roll of your wrist and hand. Both the one- and two-hand cradle are demonstrated. Techniques for catching and protecting the ball are highlighted, as well as several different stick flips. Gait teaches throwing in two distinct parts; first, he concentrates on the hands and the arms away from the body. Learning to isolate the hands and arms develops control and the ability to throw in any direction, regardless of body position. 52 Minutes.
