End zone play (against person-to-person defense)

JoelT

This play describes an endzone play against a person-to-person defense.  

Offense

Box offense 2

JoelT

The play starts with a box configuration. The defense forces the first thrower towards the outside of the box. The three cutters maintain a triangle flow creating three throwing options for the handler: A break side throw, a short open throw, and a long throw to the endzone for the score. The cutter coming in from the endzone waits for the previous in-cutter to clear out to the break side before cutting in. Same goes for the player from the break side who would then be cutting to the endzone. Cutters set-up (fake) their cut and observe their mark's body positioning to maximize separation distance from the mark during the actual cut. Cut at full speed and stop only when you securely catch the disc. Ideally, the short option cutter should run immediately to the break side if a throw is not made within 10-15 yards of the handler or if the handler signals "no". (Variations allowed for dump throw)
