(14 Double)
14 Double: Level of Play
•Level of Play
This play is suited for teams of all skill levels.
“14 Double” has very simple movements so it
is easy to implement. It also many options
after the initial dodge so even the most
advanced teams can still use it.
14 Double: Set-Up
•Set-up
“14 Double” is a 1-4-1 “Double Mumbo” play
that allows the dodger plenty of room to
create and the two picks create confusion
because the defense must adjust to the
moving players while also having a slide ready
for the dodge. In “14 Double” the dodger
(M1) wants to initiate his dodge from the
middle of the field, ten yards above the
restraining line…
14 Double: Set Up
•Set-up (Continued)
Other than M1, who is our dodger, and A1,
who is our attack outlet at “X”, the positions
of the other players can be determined by the
coaches, depending on the strength of various
players. The two crease players, defined here
as X2 and X3 should align themselves about 23 yards above the crease on the left and right
pipe respectively…
14 Double: Set Up
•Set-up (Continued)
X1 and X4 want to start on the left and right
wings about 5 yards above GLE and 7 yards to
either side of the goal. A1 should start behind
the goal at “X” 1-2 yards behind the crease so
he is in position to “sneak” around the goal
and provide back up.

14 Double: Execution
•Execution
As X1 gets ready to dodge, X1 and X4 begin to
cut to the crease. Once M1 dodges to the goal
and is within 10 yards, X1 sets a pick for X2
and X4 sets a pick for X3. X3 and X4 want to
come off the picks and be in a position where
they can catch and shoot the ball. X1 wants to
dodge for his own shot and look to feed if a
slide occurs. If a defender slides to X1, then
he should look to X2 and X3 on the outside
(most likely) or X1 or X4 on the inside (less
likely).
14 Double: Execution
•Execution (Continued)
If A1’s defender slides or helps, then A1
should cut around the goal looking for the
ball. Otherwise he should stay behind the
goal to act as a back-up for a missed missed
shot. X1 and X4 want to be in a position to
score after they set the pick. If their man
slides and they are open, they need to be
ready to catch and shoot. If X2 and X3 do not
have a shot after receiving the ball from M1,
they can look to throw a skip pass across the
field to the other outside shooter.

from M1, X2 wants to look
immediately to shoot, if
not he wants to look inside
at X1 and X4, otherwise he
wants to throw a skip
through to X3.
On the dodge M1
should be looking for
his shot. Otherwise he
wants to look at X2
and X3, or lastly, the
skip through to A1.

14 Double: Final Thoughts
• 14 Double: Final Thoughts
“14 Double” is an extremely effective play and
can be used more than once a game, because
of the various reads and decisions that can be
made on any given play. Depending on how
defenders react, X2 and X3 want want to
either “curl” back to the ball or “fade” away
to open space. ** “14 Double” leaves teams
highly susceptible to transition because no
offensive player rotates back to cover the
middle of the field. Bad shots and turnovers
can be dangerous.
