Excellent drills, very detailed videos. Useful site for my U15 boys team.
Hi. I am coaching a fairly advance boy's hockey team,but they struggle to round off in the circle and score. This may be because of a crowded circle, but how do you teach them to score? any drills which I can do with them?
we started the season 5-1 and now mid-way it seems we are fading? we have lost our last 3 games - what are some good drills to get them focused again and pumped for the rest of the season and to get them over the hump -to the next level. thanks
I am looking for a more complicated drill but for around 4 players. Needs to involve hitting in the circle and shooting on goal. Maybe looking for shooting under pressure like a defender or something?
Can someone give me advice on the best was to teach ladies 3d skills while entering the D? I am open to any suggestions. I have tried to get them lifting the ball over sticks but it doesn't seem to transfer to matches.
I just became the head coach of a middle school field hockey team and would like some pointers on how to coach. I have experience with goal keeping and defensive drills, I was a keeper, so I would like to learn more about offense as well. Any help is appreciated!!
Have any other coaches got tips, advice or drill ideas on how i can improve my team's ability to counter attack?
Can I please have drills to help with shooting goals? We actually play on grass fields (u/13A girls)

The first weeks of the season decide whether a junior or new player sticks with adult hockey. Here is how to keep them safe, give them a clear job and build their confidence from the very first bully.
