What is a "dodge"?
A dodge in lacrosse is a skillful move where a player tries to avoid a defender by quickly changing direction or using deceptive moves. The purpose of a dodge is to create space between the ball carrier and the defender, allowing the player to move toward the goal or pass to a teammate. Players can use different types of dodges, such as a split dodge, where the player changes direction quickly, or a roll dodge, where the player spins to avoid the defender. A successful dodge can help create scoring opportunities or open up space for other players.
