Lacrosse Scooping is a way of gaining ball possession when the lacrosse ball drops to the ground. Usually, the athlete bends the knee while facing the ball, aiming low, and moves the stick close to the ball where he or she scoops it quickly and forces it into the pocket of the lacrosse stick and at the same time preventing the ball from rolling back. Once the ball is in the pocket, the player can now cradle, make a pass, or shot to score. When executed correctly, scooping can determine who may win the game. Nonetheless, avoid scooping with one hand or while standing straight.
