Hockeyexercises for u13

• Let the team run for about five minutes and then continue with the following exercises: 
• put out the pilons as shown in figure one.
• Have the team make two rows on the sideline at the height of the 23-metre line.
• Perform the following running exercises on the dotted line: 
• - Knee lifting (constructive 50%, 80%, 100%).
• - Heel to buttocks (building 50%, 80%, 100%).
• - Sideways
• - Cross step.
• - And finally, release the arms.  

• 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. 

   

• The exercise is meant to simulate a game.
• It is therefore intended that one team consists of the defenders/defending midfielders and the other team consists of the attackers.
• The attackers can score in the normal goal (decide if they can hit high as in the game).
• The defending side can score by driving the ball.
• Over the line of the goals on the half way line.   
• The attackers learn to play over and finish at goal and the defending side learns to defend to the outside.  

   

• 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. 

• Flat
• Open reception,
• Accelerate & push pass out of the barrel (alternate with other techniques such as stroke, push pass, backhand pass).
• A flats to B (A runs after own ball);
• B takes it open and runs around the pilon.
• B accelerates with the ball stuck to the stick and plays the ball through the gates to A.
• Resumption

open and closed receptions

• Number one calls "open" or "closed" and then plays the ball to number two.
• Number two comes running into the ball and takes it on according to what was called.
• Then number two calls "open" or "closed" and plays the ball to number three.
• Number three enters the ball and takes it on according to what was called again.
• Then number three runs over the back line into the circle and plays it at the head of the circle to number four.
• Number four finishes on target.

• put out a square as shown in the drawing.
• Make teams of 3 people.
• There must always be one pilon open.
• Start with the ball at person 1, person must always have 2 possibilities.
• If person 1 passes to person 3, person 2 must move one square.
• This is how the exercise continues.

• 1 plays the ball using the bar to 2

  2 runs in, controls the ball, moves towards the axis of the pitch and plays via the bar to 3

  3 runs in, takes on and plays to the running-through number 2

  2 Takes on and shoots (high) on target

  
  

  
  

  Same for 4,5,6 if there are enough players for that

  
  

  Press and hold 1-2-3-1 (or 1-2-3-4-5-6-1)

• 3 persons stand at the pilons and try not to let the player in the middle touch the ball. 
• It is important that the diagonal pass is not made possible. 
• So the players without the ball have to stand in the corners compared to the player with the ball.

Variation:

• Attacker plays to defender, and plays the ball back to the attacker.
• Then the attacker is allowed to attack towards goal. 
• At 1, the ball begins and passes to the defender who then passes it to the out-going attacker. 
• From there it is 2 to 1
• See number 2, only the players remain and it becomes a 4 against 2.

Game with different variations:

• with grip
• with globe
• with stick in weird position
• with other balls

• Player A runs left towards the pilon straight ahead and retrieves the ball so that the pilon is played out. 
• Then player A passes the ball deep on to player B, who runs in.
• Player B puts the ball back to player A
• Player A finishes.

Then player A does the task of player B and vice versa.
