Hockey Community is the future of rec hockey organization! A few months ago I came in contact with Alex Toulemond, developer of Hockey Community, a place where hockey players can connect with other players in their own community to start teams, join existing teams, and find other playing opportunities at their local rinks! The site is brand new, but I believe it has the potential to become a staple for rec hockey players everywhere. In the video above, I show you a few of the key features at Hockey Community, but you really have to go check it out yourself!

Center Boundary 2 on 1

1 on 1's, 2 on 2's, 2 on 1's, 3 on 2's, Half Ice Drills, Hockey Drills, Individual Skill Drills, Misc. Drills, Passing & Timing, Shooting, Small Area Games, Team Skill Drills

Here's one of my favorite Small Area Games to work 2 on 1's and quick transitions The Center Boundary 2 on 1 is a fabulous small area game drill that works on quick transitions and 2 on 1's in tight areas. Since there are 6 players participating at once, there isn't a lot of waiting around between turns. Keep the "shifts" short; around a minute, and make sure the players are going hard the entire time! Here's the explanation and diagram: Center Line Boundary 2 on 1 1. Set up a 2 on 1 in each side. 2. Nobody can cross the center line. 3. When the defender gets the puck back, he/she must pass the puck across the line to the forwards on the other side. Start with 2…

Crease Movement #1

Goalie, Hockey Drills, Individual Skill Drills

Giving goalies a structured way to move around their crease is important for warming up and building muscle memory When doing this drill, make sure the goalie is performing his or her moves properly and getting in the proper stance. Don’t let your goalies try to do the drill too fast to maintain proper form. Make sure they are getting in the proper Post Knee Up and doing the proper Butterfly Slide. We are working on the following movements and positions: 1. T-Push 2. Reactionary Butterfly 3. Butterfly Slide 4. Stance 5. Post Knee Up Here's the diagram: Crease Movement #1 1. T-Push across, square up to puck 2. T-Push back to center, square up to coach 3. T-Push to post, either hug post or use post-knee-up position 4. T-Push…

Anaheim 2 on 1 Drill

1 on 1's, 2 on 2's, 2 on 1's, 3 on 2's, Hockey Drills, Individual Skill Drills, Passing & Timing, Shooting, Team Skill Drills

Anaheim 2 on 1 Drill I have been getting really good usage out of the Scott Fukami drill collections. These drill collections are phenomenal, and are filled with hundreds of REALLY GOOD, well-drawn drills. If you own DrillDraw, I highly recommend picking up all the drill sets. Anaheim 2 on 1 Drill **Drill starts on the whistle. Both ends at the same time. 1. On the whistle, the (F) makes a pass to the (D). 2. The (D) makes a return pass to the (F). 3. The (F) makes a pass to the second (F). 4. 2 on 1 back. Enjoy! USE THIS DRILL IN YOUR OWN PRACTICE PLAN:
