Team Building: Forwards vs Backs drill

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

DESCRIPTION

Blue player 1 runs with ball around blue hat to link up with Blue player 2 who has run with Red defender 1 shadowing her.  Blue player 1 may use Blue player 3 waiting in safe zone to pass a fwd or squ pass to then move into space to rec ball back to continue on to circle working with Blue Player 2.  Blue player 3 may join them only if she receives a pass back from Player 1 or 2.

Red defender 1 must shadow Blue 2 and prevent her from getting the ball.  Red defender 2 must run around red hat before entering in play then she must work with Red 1 to help stop the blue team from scoring.

Defenders to clear ball over sideline to win drill.

COACHING POINTS
