Slider Pass

When performing the slider technique, several factors are crucial. First and foremost, the positioning of your hands plays a vital role. Keep your hands together at the top of the stick to maintain control and precision. Additionally, your stance is essential to ensure you can aim in one direction while passing in another. Position your feet in a way that allows you to pass right while looking left or vice versa.

Getting low to the ground is another key aspect of the slider. Practice this technique by starting on one knee and gradually progress to performing it while standing. As you execute the slider, let the ball slide off the stick, starting from just below the grip and continuing down to the hook.

Deception is a critical element of the slider. Create confusion for your direct opponent by tapping the ball forward, looking in one direction, and positioning your body to slide the ball in the opposite direction. Open your shoulders toward the intended target, ensuring your face is aligned in the direction you want to pass. This deceptive approach keeps your opponent guessing and enhances the effectiveness of the slider.

One of the most challenging aspects of the slider is achieving accurate aim. To improve your accuracy, practice targeting a small goal or specific area. By setting a precise target, you can enhance your ability to hit the desired spot while maintaining the element of deception.

Regular practice, focusing on hand positioning, getting low, and refining your aim, will help you master the slider technique. Incorporate small targets and work on perfecting the deception to become proficient in executing accurate and unpredictable sliders during gameplay.
