Description
This article discusses a unique defensive strategy in Ultimate Frisbee known as "poaching off handlers". This strategy entails the defense to position two or three players around the handler, while the other three players move back to cover the deep space. When the handler attempts to throw the disc, the poachers rush up to pressure the handler and attempt to get a turnover. This strategy is particularly effective against teams that rely on short passes to move the disc up the field. Poaching off handlers can be a great way to disrupt an opponent's game plan and stop the team from scoring.
