Hockey Session (Under 16s): H6 11/28

Warm Up (15 mins)

flow to goal (20 mins)

Starts with a transfer across and to the outside. Check it to the player at the top of the circle, get it back, and pass down to the baseline player who has led to the T-spot. They dribble along the baseline back to their cone and pass 90 degrees back to the player at the top of the circle for a shot. Then the other side goes. 

Players rotate on their side (aka player 1 moves to player 2 after the rep goes to the left side). If they're getting confused by the flow, eliminate the check ball 

Coaching points: 

- Being ready and calling for the ball with your stick down 

- receiving across your body 

Progression: 

- competition to score the most goals between the sides 

APC Review (15 mins)

APC review of roles and plays. 7 players on the circle (including the back up) and 3 players back staggered by the 50. Remind the back 3 players that their role is to be aware of all the attackers and delay the play. Remind the team that backswing shots need to be below the boards. Our priorities during a PC are to get the ball on goal, that's it.

Options to practice: 

1. insert to short option, shot on goal towards the far post. Stroke spot and far post tippers in 

2. insert to hitter #1, shot on goal. All tippers in. 

3. insert to hitter #1, pass to hitter #2, shot. All tippers in.
