Why play in the offensive stance?

- The player is always ready to pass in any direction, to any teammate, even if a long pass is required.
2- The player has the option throughout the three seconds to either shoot or pass to any teammate; thus, the ball is constantly kept "in play"!
3- Playing in the OS enables and motivates creativity and wit.
4- It is easier to avoid fouls by the defenders, hence not allowing them to interrupt a sequence of dangerous offense activities.
5- Less passes are intercepted than when passing by shoving the ball, as it is harder for the opponent to anticipate the offense player's intents.
6- The players are immediately ready to shoot, especially if the ball is passed directly to the OS; the hand only needs to be raised slightly further.
7- When the ball is carried above the head, throws, shots and passes are more precise than when the arm is swung.
8- Shot realization, especially from the 6m line, is much better from the OS; it is more difficult for the goalkeeper to predict the offense player's intent.
9- Playing in the OS keeps us from bouncing the ball, which makes our game more threatening, with less exposure to fouls and interceptions.
10- When the ball is held in the OS, the swing is more dangerous and the defense is easier to break through, as the defenders have to exert more pressure.
11- In the OS, the same swing is used for shooting and passing. Therefore, only one technique of throwing the ball is required.
12- The beginners find it much easier to play with the ball above their heads; this also improves their throwing technique.
