Step by step 8 steps
  1. Step 1

    Starting position (red on defense): 5, 6, and 7 cover handlers, with 6 marking straight up (no hucks!) and 5 & 7 not allowing dumps. 1 & 2 cover the underneath passes in the middle of the field when the middle handler has possession. 3 & 4 cover deep throws, with one of them being deeper than every cutter.

  2. Step 2

    This is the starting position if the pull lands near a sideline or is picked up by a side handler. 1 & 2 shift to the right, still covering underneath passes. 3 & 4 cover deep throws, with one of them being deeper than every cutter. 5 & 6 cut off dumps while respecting upline cuts by handlers. Most importantly, perhaps, 7 marks straight up until stall 3 or so (even forcing middle a bit) as to allow 1 & 2 time to shift into position (as they have the most strenuous job), before switching to force sideline.

  3. Step 3

    By the time the stall count is at 3, the underneath defenders, 1 & 2, will be in place, and 7 can now force sideline.

  4. Step 4

    If the disc moves to the other sideline, everyone shifts, with 5 forcing straight until stall 3 and then forcing sideline.

  5. Step 5

    By stall 3, the defense has had time to shift and 5 switches to force sideline.

  6. Step 6

    But what if they complete a pass upfield?

  7. Step 7

    Well, we drop the mark off of the nearest usual handler and shift back into our default positions.

  8. Step 8

    When the unmarked handler gets the disc, we'll be back to kicking ass!
