Pushing Y1 Y2

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

DESCRIPTION

Goal:
repeat static push straigh with focus on: 
- grip
- ball at back foot
- after push stick quater circle around you 

The exercise
* couples each ball (or trio's). 
* both players push first, then get their ball (safety) 
* needs to be a push, thus NO SOUND
* from cone 1 try to push in goal. 
* push in goal =  both of couple or trio one cone further!! (team feeling) 
* Which team is first at cone 4? 

NB if one team makes cone 4, then celebrate!! Tell all couples they can try to score from cone 4 to see if they can beat the winning team.   

Variations:
- goals smaller
- individual game: one the player who scores goes up
