There are two major positions for using the SP RHP on the ground:

1. Long forehand slide or penalty corner defence:
- as the glove contacts the ground the glove is able to rotate to the most suitable position for play on the ground.
- the longer you stretch your arm the more the glove rotates right into the final position as seen in the picture.
- inside the glove your hand rotates left into the opposite direction to keep the stick in the right position.
- if you stand up again the glove and stick rotate back into the normal position.

2. Sliding backhand tackle:
- for the sliding backhand tackle you use the the sliding part of you glove.
- the glove stays in the normal position.
- rotate the stick to the left to get into the backhand postion.
- press the top of the stick on the ground so that you do not lose contact.
- this kind of tackle allows you to play the ball with your stick or glove.
