Hockey drills

  • We run as a team from one sideline to the other which is on the other side. 
    • When we get there we jog back as a team and then jog up and down again.
  • We divide the group into two equal groups. 
    • So that we can perform the warm-up a bit faster
  • We jog to the first pilon there you run backwards back to your starting position. 
    • Then you jog to the second pilon, when you get there you go back to the first pilon.
    • Until you reach the end of the jog you go back to the first pilon twice.
  • Knee lift to the pilon
    • heels to buttocks to the next pilon
    • Then lift knee again 
    • The last one is again heel to buttocks 2x
  • You start waving your arm forward to the end of the line, back with your right arm.
  • Now you're going to swing two arms forward to the end of the line, back with your arms backwards. 
  • We jog to the second pilon from there and accelerate with a sideways pass to the pilon on your left or right. 
    • Once there you accelerate again with a forward motion to the pilon in front of you. 2x
  • The last one is that we will sprint, you jump 3 times in the light and then perform a constructive sprint to the center of the field or the indicated pilon. 2x
  • After this we take a short time to stretch the muscles. 
drawing Warming-up for training and games
  • Use pilons to set up two squares 
  • Around the dotted head circle (left and right next to/opposite the goal) 
drawing Dribbling passing shooting 1 vs 1 at goal with condition
  • Put out the pilons as shown in figure three, distribute the balls over pilons C and D.
  • In this exercise you place one player each at pilons C and D, the rest of the team will line up at pilon A. 
  • From A the player runs around the pilon, from the pilon the player makes a sideways movement facing the ball (facing C). 
  • Player C plays the ball in the forehand of A, A takes the ball and opens to the right, runs towards the circle and finishes at goal.
  • From here, he runs towards D and receives another ball.
  • The player spins open to the left and finishes on goal again. 

     

  • Put out six pilons in a row with +/- five meters between each pilon.
  • This is best done on the 23 meter line as shown in figure 1. 
  • Again make two rows and let the team sprint from the sideline to the first pylon and back, then from the sideline to the second pylon and back.
  • Repeat this until the sixth pylon. 
  • After these sprint exercises let the team run half a lap. 

Aim:

  • To become physically as well as technically warm as preparation for the training.


Design:

  • The exercise will be done with a maximum of 4 people. 
  • Of course you can put a multiple of these so that the exercise still works.
    • The players 1 start with the ball and play it to their players 2. Then they change positions.
    • Players 2 play the ball back to players 1 and also change positions.


entering-in-motion

Variations:

  • You can vary the way of passing (hitting, push, flats)
  • Increase the distance between the pilons so that one only has to walk further.
  • Increase the distance between the pilons so that one only has to move on.
  • Increase both distances.
  • Increase speed
  • Make as many successful passes as possible in time.


Points of attention:

  • Sit low for good control.
  • Stick to the ground at ball control.
  • Play ball on the forehand side.
  • Stand still at ball acceptance.



Passing and scoring

  • Each pilon has a player on it.
  • Player A plays wide to the left to player B and chases the ball.
  • Player B plays the ball diagonally to the right to player C and chases the ball
  • Player C plays wide to the left to player D and chases the ball
  • Player D plays diagonally to the right the ball to player E and chases after the ball
  • Player E takes on and scores with flat / stroke
  • Player E continues to the left around the extra pilons (out of practice) back to position A

Variation:

  • Balls start on the left from position B (pilon/position A is omitted), before that a pilon is added to the edge circle (position F).
  • player 1 plays the ball from position B diagonally to the right to player 2 at position C and chases the ball
  • Player on C plays wide to left to player in position D and chases after the ball
  • Player in position D plays the ball diagonally to the right to player E and chases after the ball
  • Player in position E plays wide to the left to player in position F and chases the ball
  • Player in position F takes on the fh or high bh and scores with a (backhand) stroke and
  • Runs outside the exercise to start position (B)


Variation 2:

  • 2 rows of players behind pilons A and B
  • Player 1 plays the ball wide to the left and runs straight to position C
  • player 2 takes the ball and plays player 1 diagonally to the right in the fh while running (towards position C) and runs straight ahead towards position D.
  • player 1 takes the ball in the fh around position C and plays the ball wide / backwards back to player 2 (towards position D) and runs to position E
  • player 2 takes the ball (preferably with fh) and with foot position in direction E and plays the ball diagonally forward back to player 1 (direction E: rather just in the circle / edge circle than behind player 1)
  • player 1 takes on and strikes / fats as fast as possible towards goal (do not bring the ball back) and runs outside exercise back to position B


Variation on 2:

  • After that player 2 has delivered the ball to player 1 the 2nd time / last time, he / she becomes (passive) defender at the next set
  • the defender is not allowed to go into the circle (or rather not even behind the line (position C/D) from where he/she started (position D)
  • takes off the ball then floats over a line between position A and B.
  • The 2 players that come up stay inside the box (width of pass lines) but are free in construction, they may also cross behind, cross over but no passes in the air (no lifts).
  • the No. 1 scores and, just like the defender, runs outside back to another position. The No. 2 becomes defender


Accents:

  • hands apart while controlling
  • foot positioning open
  • control it for a follow-up pass or even a quick bounce back
  • Score after 2 contacts (control, max 1 other touch) 
    • see hands/feet position/distance from the ball at hitting and flats accents
  1. To pawn 1 pace with ball on forehand on stick. At the pawn a passing move to the left.
  2. To pawn 2 tempo with ball on stick. At the pawn a dummy.
  3. To pawn 3 indian dribble. At the pawn hop over the stick and sprint with ball under control to the back line around pawn A to pawn 4 ball on the left side of your body with left or right hand on the stick. At the pawn a seesaw with backhand over the pawns
  4. Pull the ball to the forehand and at the pion 5 make a reverse and re past the pion
  5. To pawn 6 and there make a bounce over the pawns
  6. Slow dribble to the beginning of the pawn
drawing Conditioning with ball and stick
  • Player 1 plays in hard to player 2 with flats.
  • Player 2 runs in on the ball, takes the ball in stride and turns left or right.
  • Player 2 plays the ball in to player number 3 with a hard push.
  • Player 2 then runs to pawn number 3 without the ball.
  • Player number 3 accepts the ball in the run and runs on to pawn 2.
  • Player number 3 hits a regular high shot to player 1.
  • Player #1 takes the ball in the run and then plays another flats on the player at the pawn.
drawing Store
  • The balls start at player at 1.
  • The player at 1 passes to the player at 2.
  • The player at 2 takes the ball and at that point the four players around 2 may start putting pressure on that player.
  • The player at 2 must manage to find his way and attempt a pass to someone on his team; orange.
  • Can player 2 give the pass, then orange attacks in a 4vs4, can white take the ball away, then white attacks in a 4vs4.
drawing Creating Overload

  • Plays to D instead of B
  • D hits the ball on the dot or at the 2nd post
