Hockey: Defending in pairs

Excellent drills, very detailed videos. Useful site for my U15 boys...
Parry, U15 boys Hockey Coach

DESCRIPTION

Players from the 23 metre line pass the ball to a player in the goal.
This player, on receiving the ball, can try to run the ball, under control, out of the area across the 23 metre line.
Players coming from the 23m line have to try and win the ball and score a goal.
