Hockey drills

Passing in the run and finishing on goal

Objective:
Being able to combine, run with and without the ball, turn open, pass and finish on goal.

Set-up:
For the exercise at least 2 participants are active. When you also work with a goalkeeper, a third person is active.

1. Player 1 has no ball and starts running from point A to point B.
2. Player 2 stands on point E and stays there during the exercise. Player 2 plays the ball to player 1 in the run.
3. When player 1 arrives at point B, he plays the ball back to player 2 and continues to point C.
4. Player 2 plays the ball to point C so that player 1 can take it there.
5. Player 1 turns inside and walks to the head of the circle.
6. At point D, player 1 rounds the goal and runs out the exercise on the right side so he can run around point C and take over player 2's spot.
7. After handing off player 2's final pass, he runs to point A and closes in at the back.

Variations:

• At point B, instead of passing the ball directly to player 2, player 1 can do a Swivel. In this way the player learns to put his body between the ball and the opponent.
• Player 2 can also pass to player 1 in the run from point B to point C. This trains you even more on passing and taking on in the run.
• The whole exercise can also be done in mirror image.
• Instead of one player on point E you can also have two different players make the pass. In that case, after the first pass, player 2 runs through and another player takes the ball and passes it to point C.
• If player 1 is fast enough, player 2 can also bounce the ball from point E to point C. This increases the difficulty by increasing the speed and adding the bounce.

2 attackers and 1 defender.

• Attacker plays the ball to the other attacker
• The defender puts pressure
• The attackers try to score
• If they succeed, the game starts again.

• Player 1 plays the ball with a hard push into the attacker who has come running from the spot.
• The attacker takes the ball strongly and passes it back.
• Player 1 plays the ball to the side.
• The player on the side plays the ball directly to the corner.
• Now the team can shift via the left.

Finish the training with a match shape on a half pitch

You can adjust the width of the field depending on the size of your team at the training.

• 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.

Two teams with substitutes, substitutions are made when a goal is scored.

Each person defends a goal, on each field there are 5 goals, so there are also 5 people who defend these goals.

If a goal is scored in your goal, you have to sit on the sidelines and you become a substitute. A new player (substitute) from the side enters the field and will defend the goal.

If a goal is scored, it is 1 point. The team that has the most points at the end of the game is the winner.

Overplaying to score

Two players continuously play over the ball until one student is so close to the goal that he can score in the goal.

Variation 2-1 situation:

Under pressure from the defender, the attackers must now play together and try to score. The defender can score a point by conquering the ball and then dribbling over the dead ball line. This is the short side without a 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.

Try to pass your opponent over his backhand side, which is also your forehand side (and accelerate, when you pass your opponent)

When the ball rolls to the left, you can get it to your forehand with your tip to the right

If the attacker passes the ball back to the support player, the support player can pass the ball to the other side of the field (move the ball).

The defender on the side of the field, where the ball is not, must always stay behind the other defender (in 6-a-side hockey).

• The players are divided into teams of 3.
• The game is played 3-3 on different fields.
• Players can score in 2 goals and therefore have to defend 2 goals as well.

Variation:

• Take away a goal.
• Each team can only score on 1 goal
• and therefore only have to defend 1 goal.
