Hockey Small Area Games Drills can be a great way to add competition and intensity to your practices

Try using hockey small area games drills to simulate various game situations your players will encounter. This one helps to reenforce shooting and crashing the net for rebounds, as well as odd man play and battles. As always, click here for the printout.

Enjoy!

Figure 8 Angling Drill

By Jeremy Weiss, October 22, 2009 7:34 pm

One of my favorite Hockey Body Checking Drills to work on body positioning and angling

Remember, as you progress into hockey body checking drills, to stress that the purpose of body checking in hockey is to separate the man from the puck. To do this effectively, players need a strong base in the following areas:

  1. “Raw” Skating Ability
  2. Agility
  3. Body Positioning (Angling, Gap Control, etc…)
  4. Stick Positioning
  5. Make the Hit

This video shows a simple drill to work on angling with your players. As always, click here for a printout to bring with you to the rink.

Cheers!

Hymas Square Drill

Hockey Passing Drills like this one can be great tools to run high-tempo practices

I call this the Hymas Square Drill (or the Wag the Dog Drill – since Hymas is one of those players who loves to give input). Either way, this is a great, quick-paced, heads up passing drill. As always, click here for the printout.
