The Importance of Wing Play

This blog post is all dedicated to wing play, and how to properly incorporate wings into a face-off. Having good wings who know how to read and react to a face-off can make all the difference during loose 50/50 ball. Teaching the wings how to read a face-off is a good start, and working on their positioning. Having your long pole follow the opponents butt end and having your middie follow your butt end, will help them be in the right positioning to pick up ground balls. Also communicating with your wings when opponents lock them off or leave them open, can help you decide where to exit and pull the ball out.
