Hockey: 3 vs 2 self pass

Get your players taking up forward positions on the pitch and overlapping to offer extra attacking options!

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.

All players have a ball each except for the 2 defenders.

The defending players without a ball can try to take a ball but only from a player moving with the ball.

Every time a defender comes near an attacker if the attacker stops the ball and takes a self pass then the defender is not allowed to take that particular ball for 5 seconds, giving the attacker time to find space.

White player 1. drives into the area, stops the ball and self passes to the left then turns and passes to the blue player 1.

The drill continues in this way, with players moving around the 4 areas

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.
