E This drill replicates a straight up mark while the disc is on the sideline, with a cutter heading towards the sideline
A handler, A, starts with the disc on the sideline. They are at the front of a stack. A cutter, B, stands at the front of another stack, positioned along the centre of the length of the pitch. The distance between stacks should be 10-20m; the exact distance varies depending on your offensive style and skill level.

E This pattern is used when throwing down the open side; angling the disc towards the receiver makes it difficult for the defender to make a play
A handler, A, starts with the disc near the sideline, marked by D1. A cutter, B, stands 5-10m downfield and in the middle of the width of the field, facing A.
5 Pull by Brummie
20 mins
A themed game that provides lots of chances to practice receiving the pull.
Play with the following rules:
- Each team only gets one chance to score; if both teams turnover then the point ends without either team scoring
- One team plays defence for 5 consecutive pulls, regardless of which team scores the point, or if neither team scores
The following rules are optional:
- Have your defensive team pull to your offensive line every time you play, rather than worrying about giving everyone an equal number of chances
- Increase the pressure on your offensive line by letting each points scored by the D line be worth 2pts (or 3pts, 4pts, 5pts etc)
- Feel free to change the number of pulls according to the time available
