Hockey drills for technique dribbling
Two teams compete against each other. Starting on a whistle.
- Slalom around the pots.
- Dribbling Left-Right 2x.
- Spin out.
- Shoot on goal.
- First dribble, push into the run.
- Player comes in and spins out and then returns a push into the run.
- Player comes back in and does two dribbles and then finishes on goal.
- 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.
- 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
- 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.
Stairs.
- Player blue starts with the ball at the orange pawn.
- Player blue drives the ball toward the red pawn, pulls the ball under him toward the blue pawn and then accelerates briefly with the backhand around the blue pawn.
- You do this movement three times in a row.
- Then you round on goal.
- Depending on the number of players, put the exercise out once or twice.
Minefield
- Start at the orange pawn and dribble through the minefield towards the goal.
- Keep the ball close to you and try to make sure you don't hit the pawns.
- Once you are past the minefield, round off with a hit on goal.
- Plot the exercise twice, if necessary.
- 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.
Relay
- Make two equal teams; team red and team blue.
- Start with ball at orange pawn.
- Float a lap around the green pawns and place ball with hand on pawn red.
- Then run a lap around the green pawns without ball and tap the blue pawn with your hand.
- Then walk another circle around the green pawns and take the ball off the red pawn.
- Then drive a circle around the green pawns with ball and pass the ball to the next one.
Note:
- Depending on the number of players, you can have everyone take 1, 2 or 3 turns.
- Once a player has had her/his last turn, she/he sits on the floor.
- If a team has all its players sitting on the ground, they win the relay.
- With a walk-in ball
- Playing a right front
Relay 4
- Players blue and red start at the same time with the ball
- Slalom around the 5 pawns --> cross --> around the green pawn and finish on goal.
- If you score, you may immediately choose the shortest path to tap your next teammate.
- If you miss; wide, post or the ball does not reach the goal, you make a detour via the red or blue pawn/triangle.
- Players blue run back via the blue pawn and players red via the red.
- When you have been, you sit on the ground.
- The team that has all players on the ground first wins the relay.
- Depending on the number of players, you may choose to have all players take their turn twice.
- Switch sides halfway through the exercise.
