3 Ball Possession Drill

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

DESCRIPTION

Separate players into three teams of 3-5. Each team has a ball. Play for 3x3 minutes. Progression below - adapt challenge to needs of players.

In the first session the objective is to pass within the team as many times as possible (non-directionally). Count number of successfully completed passes.

In the second session, the objective is to pass directionally, from one line to the other as many times as possible.Once a team hits a line turn and go the other way. Each team can decide which direction they attack. Each player must touch the ball for a rep to count.

On the third session, the objective is to play directionally while touching all four lines. Each player must touch the ball for a rep to count.

To add difficulty during any phase, limit the number of touches on the ball.
