Hockey drills
Goal:
- Taking out over the side
- Build up over the flank
- Get to the back line and then pass to goal
Points of attention:
- Playing the ball into the forehand.
- Moving behind the ball.
- Player plays the ball hard through push 1 ==> 2 runs directly after her/his pass
- Flattens the ball hard over long distance 2 ==> 3
- Drives the ball to the back line and passes to 4
- Takes to round at pace on goal
- A runs around the pawns with the ball and pushes to B
- B passes to C
- C drives around the pawns into the circle and passes to B who has run into the circle
- Defender D comes into action B and C try to score
Option 1: Extra defender and A attacks with him.
- A pushes to B
- B passes to C
- C drives around the pawns into the circle
- C rounds on goal
Option 1: B runs into the circle and gets the ball from C and rounds on goal.
Option 2: additional player D stands at the second post and tips in.
- A plays the ball to B
- B plays the ball to C
- C plays the ball to D
- D dribbles into the circle and finishes on goal
- B starts running around the pawn triangle
- At the middle pawn it gets the ball
- And then plays the ball back to A
- B runs further in
- It receives the ball in the backhand
- In the exercise from the other side, you are played into your forehand
- When B has taken the ball, he plays it to C
- C has run past the pawns in the meantime
- C takes the ball and runs past the pawns back to the dead ball line
- Passes the ball in front of the goal to B.
- B then rounds the ball into the goal
You can do this exercise on both sides of the pitch so that you can pass faster in succession.
- A starts with a ball and drives into the circle and rounds off
- B plays when A has rounded a ball to V1
- From here the 2 versus 2 starts
- When A and B conquer the ball, they can score in one of the goals on the side
- We always play 2 against 2
- Group 1 plays against group 2
- Group 3 stands ready with a ball, if the ball is out, or scored, group 3 may start, Group 1 then enters that box to defend
- Group 1 against group 3
- Group 4 is ready with a ball, ball out, or scored, group 4 starts with the ball and writes group 3 to defend
- Group 3 against group 4
- And so on
- A plays the ball to B
- B plays the ball to C who has run up to the green pawns
- C runs along the pawn line and passes the ball to A who has run through to the circle
- A then finishes on goal
You can perform this exercise on both sides.
- One ball per pair.
- Pairs are instructed to pass through as many gates as possible in 2 minutes.
- A gate is completed when you pass the ball three times.
Divide your group into 2 teams.
- Red player in center plays defender in and gets ball back. 2 - 1 hockey out in the 'forbidden' zone.
- Right blue player starts with ball and plays defender in, plays back to blue and a 3 - 3 starts in the 'forbidden' zone and right field.
- Defenders may score in the goal if the ball is intercepted.
- After this attack, an attack starts from the left.
- Player red plays into the defender, plays back and a 4-4 in the whole 23 meter area starts.
- Defenders can defend by scoring in one of the goals.
On offense -with advantage- or off-ball, pass immediately to next attack.
Add extra: Scoring within 10/15 sec. Start when the attacker receives the ball back from the defender.
- A starts with the ball and runs a bit and passes the ball to B
- B takes possession, runs a short distance and passes to C
- C takes the ball, runs a short distance and passes the ball to A who has passed on
- A takes the ball and runs to the pawns where she makes a passing move
- C runs to the circle and gets the ball back from A
- C rounds on goal
- A has the ball and does over the three pawns and chop
- She then plays a 1 vs 1 against B
- B tries to capture the ball and then drive the ball through the gate on the 23-yard line
