Hockey drills for technique attack / offense
- 1 and 2 pass the ball up and down 3 times.
- The one who gets the ball last plays someone of his color in the circle and may help build an attack in the circle.
Expansion:
- They may move out of the circle and also 2 meters outside the circle.
- Once the ball is cleared by the defending side, the attack is over.
- Defending outside.
Simultaneously to this exercise 3 players can practice the penalty corner.
Trainers divide over both exercises.
Trainers divide over both exercises.
- Attacker on the ball runs up and does a reverse.
- Passes to attacker 2.
- 2 vs. 2 starts.
- 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
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.
- Starts at the bottom pylon
- Plays the ball at high speed
- Plays it towards the penalty spot
- The left player runs in
- Tips the ball into the goal
- Part 1:
- The player with the ball passes it to the player closest to the center line.
- This one takes the ball in motion to the outside.
- Makes a 1-2 with his teammate on the outside.
- Then runs into the depth.
- Gets the ball after the sticklead.
- Finishes on goal.
- Part 2:
- After the player in coverage gets the ball the 2-on-1 starts.
- Part 3:
- A pair, attacker and defender, also starts in the circle.
- Team blue starts in a 2:1 where one of the players must leave the square running.
- If this is successful it becomes a 5:4.
- A 2nd ball follows from the trainer.
- A starts with the ball and plays it back to B first.
- When B has taken the ball the 3-on-3 starts and the defenders may start pressuring.
- Tips for the attackers:
- Use the practice of switching the strikers.
- Play only the safe ball.
- Remember the 4 squares in the circle.
- Tips for the defenders:
- Keep your man/woman in the circle.
- Push them to one side.
- Always put pressure on the ball so don't let them shoot.
- Party game with two goals and a square in the middle of the field.
- The ball may not be played through the square. In that case the ball is in touch.
- So the idea is to play field hockey outside and not through the axis of the field.
- With a walk-in ball
- Playing a right front
