I searched and couldnt find a thread like this so do you play on a high arc, low arc, mid arc, or other (explain)

I play high arc, makes it easier to reject errant bounce shots, also I can swipe more passes off the crease.

high arc is the way to play. or i play a kind of high arch. i play it like half tight-oval instead of semi circle. ill play really aggressive on shots that are in front of the goal and a little pressed back but not on the goal line with other shots.

angles is sort of my weak area so i expirement with different arcs. i usually do better with a lower arc

I play a high arc because I am pretty small and it makes me look bigger in the net

Low arc and high arc variation. When ball is farther up, I play high and if its lower I play lower arc, but usually I just play low arc or straight/line arc.

Low arc has served me well and I think I'll continue to use it at the next level unless I'm told otherwise and find a better style. I've tried a higher arc, but it just doesn't seem to work for me.

i like to play a mid-low arc, thats how i learned and i find myself out of position sometimes if i play a high arc. when shots are in close i play a high arc though, so theres not as much room to shoot at.

i play on a mid arc. it's not to close in but not to far out.

i step out high when shooters are 10+ yards out.
otherwise i play a tight low 5 step arc.

I play a high arc. Stick with what works, ay? I like to play stick to stick on crease 1v1s so it's easier to get there in a high arc.

at home games i play high, because our field is so messed up, that bouncers go everywhere. there are tufts of grass and dirt piles that make the ball go everywhere, but i play a mid-low everywhere else

I play on a high arc because i play VERY aggressive and come out and hit people, Plus i'm 6'3 and 215 lbs. so the goal looks really small.

I play a mid-high arc, generally a 5-step arc. on 8 meters though i come out all the way to the crease line.
