Hockey drills for technique attack / offense
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 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
- 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
- Dribbling from A to B.
- Pass to the player who is ready
- Player who delivered the ball sprints toward goal, player with ball plays deep
- Sprinting player hits the goal in the run
- A plays the ball wide to B, who is ready to receive the ball
- B takes the ball and drives toward the box where they play a 1 vs. 1 against A who is ready to defend
- 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
Learning to attack using space over right.
- In the two squares, there is loitering.
- Taking turns, the blue ones from the square attack, creating a 4-on-3.
- When this attack is over, they go back to their square and loaf.
- Then the other square starts attacking.
