Rotating Triangle clear

The rotating triangle clear in men's lacrosse offers several key benefits:

Consistent Passing Options – The rotating movement ensures that the ball carrier always has multiple safe outlets, reducing turnovers.

Breaks High-Pressure Rides – By constantly shifting and adjusting, the clear prevents defenders from easily trapping the ball, making it harder for a ride to succeed.

Creates Natural Spacing – The formation forces players to spread out, avoiding congestion and improving passing accuracy.

Adaptable to Different Rides – Whether facing a 10-man ride, zone ride, or aggressive pressure, this clear provides structure while allowing for quick decision-making.

Keeps Opponents Moving – The constant rotation forces defenders to chase and react, wearing them down and opening up transition opportunities.

Multiple Exit Strategies – With midfielders, attackmen, and the goalie as options, the ball can be moved safely upfield in a variety of ways.

Encourages Smart Decision-Making – Players learn to read pressure, reposition, and use movement to create clearing lanes rather than relying on long passes or individual dodging.

This clear is ideal for teams looking to maintain control, efficiently transition into offense, and minimize risk while facing high-pressure rides.
