a trap is when your team is on defence and you have 2 players guarding him you wait till the offensive player crosses the half way line then the 2 players guarding him one in front of him and the other on the side. therefore the result is the offensive player can't go back over half court because it will be "cross court" he can't go round them other wise he will go out and there are 2 players guarding him so he is "TRAPPED!"

hope this helps

A "trap" happens when a fielder catches a line-drive or flyball on the first small bounce after hitting the ground. If the fielder caught the ball in the air, it would be an out. But because they caught it after the first hop, it is not an out. The term "trap" is used when the ball barely touches the ground, before the fielder grabs it.

A trap (or trap glove) is a glove used by a goalie. It resembles the dimensions and use of a Baseball glove (or catcher's mitt).

Dump and Chase, trying to carry the puck into a team that is trapping is very difficult. Alternatively, short quick passes is one way to penetrate the trap.
