Best Answer

It is simply a pass using the players natural stance. A players stick is curved depending on if they are right or left handed. A pass using the concave section of the stick is a forehand pass and a pass using the other side of the blade is a backhand pass. Backhand passes are usually less powerful and accurate because they go against the players natural stance.

A forehand pass is a pass to a player using the front of blade (the part that curves inward) of the stick, whereas the backhand pass requires the use of the back of the blade (the part that curves outward).

it's when your stick is flat on the ground and you are "sweeping" the ball to your teammate.

It's another kind of pass.

Forehand in tennis is a type of shot that you do with your right hand (if you are left handed you do forehand with your left hand).
