Hockeyexercises for technique 1,5 meter / corona / covid-19

• Improving passing.
• Improving finishing on goal.

• Use half of the playing field.
• 2 distributors (Z) and 1 goalkeeper.
• Course with one-two passes, dribbling, and finishing on goal.

• After each pass, continue running to receive the ball back from the distributor.
• Pay attention to the position of the goalkeeper before shooting on goal.

• Train different passing movements.
• Practice both leftwards and rightwards.

• Exercise B+C
• B is about the left
• C is over the right
• A1 dribbles with ball to A2
• B guides player A, at 1,5 meter, backwards (open position).
• This is about footwork, so when A arrives at A2 he just lets A strike at goal.
• After the hit, A leaves the circle. B turns around and gets a ball from C. B takes a closed approach, turns open and plays the ball.
• B takes a closed approach, turns open and rounds the goal.
• Then the exercise starts on the right.

Do you want to get in shape? You can, but you need a few things for it.

• What do you need?
  • Pawns
  • Soccer
  • Clothes you can work out in
  • Stairs
• First of all, it's important that you warm up well before you start working on your fitness!
• What do you need to do?
  • Run 2 cones to the front 1 to the back and repeat this every time.
    • Do that twice
  • Take the ball and run with it in 5 circles.
    • This will give you ball control and also ensure that you have worked on your fitness for a while.
  • You can also do exercises for your condition inside by running 5 times up and down the stairs.
• Of course you can give your own twist to how you want to do it, but I find these are the nicest and most fun ways to improve.
• Don't try to run fast the first day without stopping, do it in steps!

1 v 1

• Make a square from 5m-5m and play a 1v1. the defender is only allowed to defend with his body so no stick.
• Focus on defence.
• Use your body to force them to go to your strong side.
• When you push them to the side make a block tackle.
• Block tackle is always on the forehand, 2 hands on the stick and step forward.
• Stick is on the ground.
• Jab:
• Make a small square 1m-1m.
• The defender is inside the square and the attacker tries to get the ball inside the square.
• The defender use the jab to defend his square.
• You jab with your stick to the ball.
• Left foot in front and right food in the back (not flat fooded).
• Use your stick as poke.

• Putting down pawns.
• Make several situations, this depends on the amount of players you have.
• Dribble around the cones, at the last cone pass the ball back to the waiting team-mate, the team-mate also starts the slalom dribble again.
• Same as above, but now after the slalom score in the goal ( between two cones ), you take the ball out of the goal again yourself.
• Variation:
  • Instead of shooting into the goal, give a cross after the last pawn to the person who is waiting at the pawn in front of the goal,
  • This person shoots it into the goal and takes the ball back.
  • The person who has passed stands on the spot in front of the goal to receive the ball.

• The backhand stroke is useful for a shot on goal but also to pass to your teammate.
• With the backhand, you place your left hand at the end of your stick and your right hand slightly above the middle of your grip.
• Usually you play a backhand from the barrel.
• When your right foot is in front you let the ball roll a little bit.
• Meanwhile you turn your stick to the backhand, you bend your right knee and then you hit the ball with the part of your stick just above the curl (make sure the ball doesn't stick in the curl otherwise you have no control over it).
• You can make the ball go low or high by turning your stick.
• With a diagonal stick the ball flies upwards, with a straight stick it stays on the ground.

Bridge

Starting position

• Lie on your back.
• Bend your knees to 90 degrees and place both feet flat on the floor.
• Your arms are along your body with the palms facing down.

Action

• Tighten your buttocks and stomach.
• Lift your buttocks off the ground to form a straight line with your knees, hips and shoulders.

Difficulty

• To make this exercise more difficult: alternately extend your right and left leg, keeping your hips in position.

• Set up the exercise and where the ball is played to the team-mate it goes through the alley.
• At the end of the exercise the ball carrier can score on goal.
• After the exercise, the players walk along the outside back to the start.
• Increase the distance between them
• Make the street narrower and narrower
• change the starting position after a while

• Players divided into two groups on one side of the field.
• Two rows of cones next to each other.
• Players pass the ball back and forth while walking past the cones.
• Variations
  • Individuals keep ball high along a row of cones, both groups independent of each other.
  • Passing the ball two by two
  • Individually dribble two balls at the same time, slalom through the cones
  • Pass the ball and dribble a second ball at the same time (player says yes).
  • Three of you play over 2 balls to the other side.

Purpose

• Practicing different techniques. (Also useful to observe how things are going during the 1st training).

Set up

• All players line up on the baseline (or another line) and do a certain
• and do a certain exercise until the 23m line (or another line).
• This can be only floating, or floating + at whistle a drag or lift, etc.
• Important is that it is not about the fastest, but the best!
• You can make it easier or more difficult by making a difference in the exercise.

Goal

• The goal of this exercise is to learn to look ahead when floating. In addition, you train your ability to react.

Set up

• The players line up on, for example, the back line.
• The trainer stands 10-15 metres away from the players.
• At an agreed signal, the players start drifting towards an imaginary line at your height.
• But in the meantime, they have to look in front of them, because you raise a certain number of fingers and the players have to say that number.
• To make this exercise more difficult, you can ask the players to make a passing move on an agreed signal, or you can make the distance bigger, or the players have to walk instead of saying the number, to a point which corresponds with the number.

• Position the pawns as shown in the figure
• Spread the balls on pylons C and D.
• In this exercise you place a player on the pylons C and D.
• The rest of the team lines up at the A-post.
  
  
• From A the player walks around the pylon
• From the pylon, the player makes a sideways movement, facing the ball (facing C)
• Player C plays the ball into the forehand of A
• A takes the ball and turns to the right to open
• A runs towards the circle and finishes on goal.
• From here he runs to D and receives another ball.
• The player turns open to the left and again finishes on goal.

Goal: Improve passing. To improve finishing on goal.

Organisation: Half playing field 2 attackers (Z) â€" 1 goalkeeper Course with 1,2-ties, dribbling and finishing on goal. After each pass you have to run to get the ball back from the attacker.

Tip: Before shooting on goal, pay attention to the position of the goalkeeper!

Variations: Practise different passing moves, both anti-clockwise and clockwise.

The exercises can be played in 2 variants the variant for really beginning hockey players (this exercise can be used for a clinic for example) and the variant intended for beginning hockey players who have already been in touch with hockey.

Variation 1:

• Player 1 plays the ball to player 2,
• Player 2 receives the ball and passes to player 3.
• Player 3 receives the ball and shoots at goal.
• Player 4 tries to stop the ball with the bottom of his foot or with his stick.
• Player 4 retrieves the ball and joins the back of the line at the starting pawn of player 1.
• For safety's sake don't shoot on target when player 4 picks up the ball.
• It is also possible to get the balls out of the goal later or use a break for that.
• This is for safety reasons.

• This is a basic exercise in preparation. 
• Just like a tennis player who prepares for training with basic strokes, the players must prepare for the complex training and competition forms, with direct simple passes on top of each other. 
• In this way, the trainer has the ability to see technical errors in each individual player and correct them as early as the basic exercise. 
• The players pass the ball directly between two pylons and walk counter-clockwise to the other side. 
• The size of the target and the distance between the players will be adjusted according to the age and level of the players.
