Here are some pertinent rules. You tell me if what you are doing is legal...

A.R. 11. May a player use the portion of the handle of his crosse that is between his hands to hold an opponent? RULING: No.

A.R. 16. B1, with gloved hand over end of crosse, is exerting pressure from the rear against A1, who has possession of the ball. B1 exerts enough pressure to force A1, against his will, to move away from goal. RULING: Technical foul against B1. Only equal pressure may be used.

umm not A.R. 11
and some what A.R. 16 but not to the point of pushing him in a direction against his own will more or less just keeping my distance from him by pushing him off a little when he presses in my direction

You're going to have to read the officials on every game. It's hard to make a decision without actually seeing what you do.
