Three more important movement techniques...

Rushing

Rushing is a quick way to get from point A to point B, and can becombined with crawling. Rushing should be kept on the short side,around three seconds, to keep the enemy from tracking players.To rush, a player will lift his or her head up from their currentcrawling position and scan the area for their next move.
Then, they will lower their head, bring their arms and legs closerto the body and then quickly lift up and run to the next position,and get back into a crawl. This can be done several times tostrategically get from part of the field to another in the quickestmanner possible.

Moving With Stealth

There are points where players will not be crawling near theground. But rather than just walking through the playing area,they should be moving with stealth. Moving with stealth meansmoving quietly, carefully and slowly.
To move stealthily, the weapon should be held in the readyposition. Footing should be kept solid by putting the weight ofthe body on the foot that is currently touching the ground, andletting the toe hit the ground first and not letting the heal hituntil the toe feels solid. Steps should be short to maintainbalance, and the leg should be lifted high when there is highbrush.
So, when thinking about stealth, keep some other S's in mind- slow,study and solid.
