Hockey: Elimination Skills: Changing direction under pressure

I love using Sportplan. It's been a great help for co-ordinating hockey...
Laura, Hockey Coach

DESCRIPTION

- Elimination Skills
- 1 Forward and 1 Defender
- Forward needs to dribble the ball through one of the gates. The defender has to try and win the ball
- The forward should have a set number of attempts and then swap with the defender

COACHING POINTS

- Drill is set up to encourage V-drag and Stutter step eliminations
- Player should use body position and head placement to disguise the movement
- Players should understand when they have beaten a player and begin the drive towards the gate

PROGRESSION

- Decrease the size of the area so the forward must eliminate under more pressure
