Queen of the Ring Recap

I really appreciate the Hockey Coaching on Sportplan. The senior girls...
Petra

DESCRIPTION

Recap the same warm up exercise. The rules are simple:

- Every player apart from 2 has a ball. They are dribbling around the area.

- On the whistle the 2 non-ball players have to try to steal a ball and carry it to one of the side boxes. Players can try to tackle back. If hit out the attacker can go and gain their ball back.

- Once the ball is in the box the player who lost the ball now becomes a defender and tries to steal someone else's ball.

- The queen of the ring is the last player with their ball.

- If there is a stick tackle or a foul (foot etc) then the attacker keeps the ball and the defender has to move onto someone else.

- The group will need to be split into two groups of 15 or so. Could stream this on ability to make sure all players have a fair chance. Make sure the groups are different from the warm up groups so players are being challenged and stretched by new defenders.

- Focus on pulling aside any players which are weak at block and jab tackles still. Might be they aren't timing the ball right, body position or incorrect grip.

- Over kill the PALM2 acronym when players are playing so all the principles are complete and the chances of a better tackle are higher.

- Feedback to the players as to whether they were using the principles/ coaching points learnt in the session and if this lead to their time being beaten.
