Hockey: call in support

Don't let poor passing hold back your attack! Use this session to help players pick out that killer pass in the attacking third

Players start in pairs on the 23 meter line.

The attackers have to try and score a goal against the defender.

The defender has no stick and to stop the players scoring they have to tag the player in possession of the ball. As soon as a player has been tagged both attackers must stop and join the queue again.

White player 1 and 2 have decided between them who will take the self pass (without the defender knowing)

On the whistle both white players run to take the self pass but only one comes back with the ball. The defender can try and stop them scoring.

Player taking the self pass can shoot or pass to other player.

Next pair decide between them and get ready.

The player with the ball runs around the cone before then trying to pass the ball to the player standing behind the defender.

To get the ball past the defender players should dummy and try to pass past the left foot of the defender.

The receiving player has to run the ball around the cone before attempting to pass the ball back to the other side.

If the defender intercepts the ball players must change roles.

2 equal teams in the circle and lots of balls on both side lines.

The coach calls out a team.

1 of the players has to run to one of the sidelines and take the freehit.

All the other players have to run to the 23 metre line before they can get involved.

After each break down or shot at goal, coach calls out the next team.
