Hockey: Player in the Middle: Hitting

Great site. An absolute must for coaches who are willing to change...
Ignatius

DESCRIPTION

- 4 players have to move the ball across the box containing one defender
- Players must remain on the corners of the box
- The defender can move along the line from side to side, but cannot encroach on the players hitting
- If the ball is intercepted, swap the defender in the middle with the player who hit the ball

COACHING POINTS

- Players should use there body position to disguise their pass
- The defender should attempt to dictate where the ball can go through their positioning in the box

PROGRESSION

- Allow the players on the outside to move up and down the box edge
