Drill of the Week - 10.07.2024
Setup:
Players line up at all 4 neutral zone face-off circles with pucks.
Progression 1:
On the whistle, a player with a puck starts out and passes down the side of the ice, after that, the player passes through the middle of the ice, and they continue to follow the side - middle - side passing flow.
After players get the movement down, add more pucks so both sides are skating at the same time, which forces players to keep their heads up.
Progression 2:
Have players in line start moving before they receive the puck. This forces the player with the puck to lead the player in the direction they are skating.
Coaching Points:
Communicate
- Keep stick on the ice to let the player with the puck know where you would like the puck
- Keep head up when skating with the puck to be aware of the other players
Variations
- Can add more than 2 pucks to make it more challenging for the players.
- Can make the passing area larger or smaller.
