Being able to throw and catch with both hands and swap hands quickly will make you a better player.

Catch the ball as if catching an egg

As you catch the ball in the lacrosse stick head, let the stick give as it receives the pass. This means dropping the head back with the ball which should prevent the ball from popping out.
