Cones don't have shoulders. The Man Up Defender gives you something to dodge, something to shoot around, and something to hide behind, without running a teammate into the ground.

Features:

  • Gives you a body to dodge, screen behind, and shoot around
  • Lets goalies train seeing shots through traffic instead of clean looks
  • Turns a walkthrough into a live rep when you're short on bodies at practice
  • Water-filled base keeps it upright through contact and wind
  • Packs into the carry bag and moves with one player

A body changes everything

You can dodge a cone all day and never learn a thing. Cones don't stand up. Cones don't take up space. Cones don't make you finish on the other side of something.

The Man Up Defender stands where a pole would stand. Roll it, split it, hitch and go, or set a pick and slip it. Every rep gets the geometry right, which is the part cones can't fake.

The shot you actually have to hit

Most goals in a real game come through traffic. Put the Defender out front and now you're shooting over a shoulder, around a body, or through a window. That's the shot you'll get on Saturday, so that's the shot worth reps.

Goalies, this one's for you

Clean looks are the easiest saves you'll ever make, and you won't get one all season. Stand a Defender in front of the cage and have a shooter work behind it. Now you're tracking the ball late, reading through a screen, and moving off a shot you didn't see the whole way. That's the rep that wins games in April.

Coaches, this is another body

You've got twenty kids and four coaches. Stand a Defender in the alley and the dodging station runs itself. Add a second and you've got a two-man game with real spacing. Nobody gets worn out playing dummy, and nobody sits.

Set it up and go

Fill the base with water using the funnel, inflate it, and plant it. Done for the day? Drain it, roll it, bag it. It rides in the trunk or lives in the practice bin.

The Best

I’ve used a lot of different balls for training and personal use, and I have been highly satisfied with these ones. They are durable, and hold their texture even with a high usage of reps.

Timothy Rau

Awesome

Anthony Abbatemarco
Great Balls!!

I recently ordered practice balls for my daughter, and they exceeded our expectations. Given that they will primarily be used in our backyard, there is no compelling reason to purchase game balls. The order process was straightforward, and we received the balls promptly. We intend to continue using Crankshooter for future practice-related purchases.

Jay Caruso
Excellent product!

Son very happy new net and new backstop. Came on time. Easy to set up. Getting a lot of use!

Stephanie Sarney
Great net

This is a great net. Strikes the perfect balance of being a high quality high school practice goal and a high end backyard goal.

Jonathan Sherman
Holy balls

These textured practice ball are great my kid leaves them outside for weeks on end and they still remain grippy even with a slight "glaze "

Michael Peters
Works great as a therapy ball!

This is my 3rd or 4th order! We give these out to our patients as an at home trigger point/muscle knot therapy ball and they are perfect for it!

Great quality

Great balls I’ve had no issues with them thus far the orange color makes them easy to find in grass and the texture makes sure they are consistent every time

Mason Carter
Versatile, Practical, 'Save a window' back stop

The 21x11 backstop has been a very practical addition to our backyard mini practice field. The team at Crankshooter have been been very helpful. The setup of the backstop is straight forward and all the parts are clearly labeled for easy assembly. With four boys and neighborhood boys making our small backyard their lacrose training site, the backstop has saved a number of what would have been broken windows. We strongly recommend working with the team at Crankshooter and their product is solid.

John Meier
Great Deal. Solid Product

Wanted to buy in bulk and needed a bucket. This one can be used as a seat and has a nice, durable padded handle. Now I can go shoot for hours without chasing balls around. I chose the non-textured classic white balls - great deal!
