What is a "clamp"?

A clamp in lacrosse refers to the technique used during a faceoff where two players try to gain possession of the ball by using the head of their stick to trap the ball against the ground or their stick. The players position themselves with their sticks in a low stance, and the goal is to secure the ball while preventing the opponent from gaining control. A successful clamp allows the player to push the ball towards their side of the field, helping their team maintain possession and potentially start an offensive play.
