As the team's shooter, the sniper uses his outside or mid-range skills to change the scoreboard. Isolated at 0° or receiving the ball at the end of the screen, the "Catch & Shoot" is part of his daily routine and his strong point. To achieve this, the pair chosen must be equipped with all-round stability, enabling them to maintain excellent support when shooting. This stability is achieved by a wide sole, firm cushioning and a reasonable thickness. Good grip and traction will also make it easier to finish off any runs made, and be in good condition to receive the ball!
