ok when i play lacrosse i usually play 3rd home (im 15/f) and sometimes when the ball is coming from up the field i dont know where to cut to, like if i cut up towards the girl coming will i get in her way, if i cut low towards the goal will i be in her way for a shot, if i cut away will i be useless? here's a picture of what im talking about - as if i am the yellow X, the ball is the purple circle, and im on the red team, going towards the blue goal. the red X next to the ball is the girl who has the ball and if coming down the field. im just a little confused on this, thanks

Also, to answer your other question, cutting away from the goal may be a good thing if the person with the ball is going in to shoot. By moving away, you will take your defender with you, and give the girl with the ball a more wide open space to run in and shoot.
