Hockey: Give and Go Circle - Part 1

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

Laura, Hockey Coach

DESCRIPTION

The inside player passes the ball to their partner on the outside.
The inside player then moves clockwise to receive the ball back via a wall pass from the outside player.
The inside player then runs clockwise to pass the ball to the next player on the outside

Practice continues.

COACHING POINTS

This practice requires good concentration from all players - you may wish to walk through it at 50% pace to begin with to ensure players understand the movement patterns (one-two pass, switch positions, repeat).

2 player passing pattern:

A. Player 1 passes the ball to player 2.

B. Player 1 then follows his/her own pass.

C. Player 2 passes the ball back to player 1 for a wall pass back in the space

D. Player 2 runs onto the ball and has a shot at goal.

Passing & Receiving

Pass and Follow:

Players pass and follow the ball each time to the next cone.
It is important to follow the following progressions: 1 - run and follow 2 - run/pass and follow 3 - pass and follow.

Passing & Receiving

Adding to the pass:

Player 1 passes the ball to player 2, who lets the ball run across the body and runs with the ball to the next cone. He or she dummies to hit the pass wide but hits it under the arm into the path of player 3 running infield. Player 3 receives the ball on the move and shoots at goal.
