Plot exercise on 2 sides.
1 vs. 1
- Attacker blue plays the ball with a push pass to defender red.
- Defender red accepts the ball and plays the ball with push pass back to attacker blue.
- Attacker blue takes the ball and plays a 1 vs. 1 with the blue defender in the square.
- Does the attacker win the duel he may score freely. The defender does not have to pass if the 1 vs 1 is lost in the square.
- If the defender takes the ball away, he makes sure the ball is played through the orange gate.
- The attack is finished when the attacker has shot at goal or the defender has played the ball through the orange gate.
Points of attention:
- Focus is both on defending -poking, sitting low, not stepping in- and attacking -tempoing, direction changes, etc.
- Depending on the number of players, the exercise can be plotted twice.
- Make two rows of an equal number of players.
- Players take turns drifting toward the three double pawns.
- Arriving at the double pawns, do the herring trick three times in a row and then flatten the ball on goal.
Herring trick:
- You play the ball to the right of the double pawn and pass it yourself to its left.
- Make sure you have control of the ball again before the next double pawn.
- So push the ball in a controlled manner.
Party with four goals.
- The coach makes two equal teams.
- Each team defends two goals.
- It is allowed to play field hockey behind goal, but scoring is only allowed at the front.
Points of attention:
- Play with the 3 second rule; take the ball quickly after a foul. Takes longer than 3 seconds, free hit for the opposing team.
- If it is crowded on one side of the field, move the ball at pace to the other side where there is more space.
