Excellent drills, very detailed videos. Useful site for my U15 boys team.
I've been out of the hockey for a number of years and am just getting back into coaching, having coached previously at senior level. What I have noticed is that there seems to have been an injection of new terms and phrases into the game which in some respects are no more than an effort by those involved to confuse old people like me. Could someone point me in the direction of a web site which has a good glossary which will help me decipher this new terminology. Many thanks.
Any idea's on new pre game drills? We are now playing the '5' just passing and the last one shoots, but after a few months it got bored. So looking for new drills! Any suggestions?
