Pivot Points

A pivot point is a spot where a lacrosse player will stop all forward movement with one foot forward and turn around by twisting his body instead of taking extra steps. If a player pivots on his left foot, for instance, he will stop with his left foot forward, and swing his cradle strong to his right, almost over his head, while twisting around and facing the way he came. Pivot points can be crucial in shaking a defender during a lacrosse game because the speed and direction is changed so quickly.

Pivot points can be added to just about any lacrosse drill, especially relays.
