OFTEN USED WITH...

Cone Dribble:

Put out a long line of cones, with 30cm between each cone.

This is always a good warm up exercise, ideal for when you are waiting for everyone to arrive and get ready.

Using both sides of the stick get your players to dribble through the cones as fast as they can with the ball under control.

Practices For Juniors

Back and Forth!:

Set up two cones about 2 meters apart.

Players dribble the ball back and forth between the two cones without taking their hands off their stick.

Practices For Juniors

Find a new ball:

Every player with a ball and stick.

Players can run anywhere they like or restrict the area.

On the whistle all the players leave the ball and have to find another ball to continue to run with the ball until the next whistle.

Practices For Juniors

Check the time Grip:

Players should switch from looking at the time on their watch (watch on left hand for right handed players) and then switch to a watch down grip.
