Hockey: Transfer at Speed to Defender's Reverse Side

Description

*** AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON ***

Coaches Objective:

To teach the attacker to eliminate the defender by transfering the ball wide onto their reverse stick side at pace.

Purpose:

To get on the goal-side of your opponent as fast as possible to then pass or shoot. 

Coaching points

1. Angle of the drive should be to the defender's open stick. 
2. This allows the ball to drop back in its stance.
3. Open the stick face to appear as if you will push the ball down the defenders left foot.
4. Drag the ball right to left (defender's open stick) at pace.
5. Catch the ball left handed on your reverse stick. 
6. Accelerate away.
