Being trapped on the sideline can be daunting for intermediate players. This 3-person play makes it easier for the thrower by giving more options; and helps turn a sideline trap into an attacking position.
6+
This drill should be a staple for any team that uses a dump behind the disc, and will teach you to use a reset as a way of generating power position or movement to the break side.

Side stack gives a huge amount of field space for an offence to work in. Many teams will counter this by using multiple defenders to clog up the cutting lanes, so this drill teaches how to play against this defence.
7+
A brick play popular with the British team Chevron Action Flash in the early 2000s, this movement utilises a break throw to the front of the stack to set up a long throw.

7+
Combine a number of options here and play with full defence; this drill will teach you how to combine cuts when running Cyclone, and help you to develop the decision making required to use Cyclone in a game.
5+
The characteristic movement of handlers clearing laterally to the break side in Cyclone is practiced with this drill
6+
Good offences have lots of options from just a few basic movements. Here, we combine dynamic handler movement with downfield cutting options to give a dozen options in a short space of time.
7+
Handler movement can be so difficult to stop that teams have constructed their entire offence around it. Here's just a sample of how to bolt together the key movements.

Japanese teams use narrow space and quick throws as a way to nullify the size disadvantage they tend to have when playing internationally. They also seek to maximise the advantages gained by motion, looking to attack into areas that are difficult to defend and which make it difficult for defenders to prevent continuation.

6+

8+
A coordinated cutting pattern that gets the disc out of a sideline trap efficiently
7+
Horizontal stack works best when the disc is in the centre third of the field, so it's vital that you're able to escape from a sideline trap
14+
A simple yet effective mechanism for generating and maintaining offensive flow
6+
A simple, game-like drill that helps to incorporate decision making for handlers receiving the pull
5+
Practice maintaining flow and swinging the disc in vertical stack
8+
The idea here is to get three or more cutters working together, all running the Triangle Cutting patterns, to provide lots of options to throw to in a short space of time.
4+
When cutting deep it’s critical not to set off too early. Doing so often results in clogging up the deep space, reducing the thrower’s options. Learn how to time your cuts with this drill.
4+
Timing deep cuts is a vital part of being a good receiver; it rarely gets much attention but when you time your cuts correctly, throwing away becomes much easier (and you'll catch more goals!)
4+
A well timed under cut will allow a thrower to pass into the field to an open player shortly after they have changed direction, gaining maximum distance down down, and into the centre of the field. All of this would happen as the thrower establishes a pivot foot and looks up field.
4+
Practice timing continuation cuts for maximum gain and to ensure that your offence continues flowing downfield
4+
Defenders can often read what a cutter wants to do in advance to re-position themselves to deny an option. When cutting, it is therefore good to be able to make split-second decisions about where you want to cut.
3+
If the initial cut isn't available, turning to cut to the break side is a fantastic clearing cut. In this pattern, we add another option, a deep strike, which is ideal when cutting in isolation.
4+
A flood play used to create space for an isolated cutter in horizontal stack
8+
This is a coordinated cutting pattern aimed at moving defenders to create an undefended away cut.
