Hockey drills for technique push pass

Purpose
: Various technical forms to warm up.

Format
:The exercise can be set up one-sided or two-sided. This depends on the number of players in the training.

1. At point A, the player makes a drag and passes the pawns. Then he passes to the player at point B.
2. The player at point B takes the ball and dribbles to point C. From there he passes to the player at point C.
3. The player receives the ball and turns towards the goal, completing the pass
4. Before turning, you run after the ball. Point D rejoins point A again.

Variations:

• You can set up the exercise single-sided and double-sided.
• You can also choose to warm up the goalkeeper in this way.
• At C, you can switch sides. If you are coming from the right, play the ball to the right, so that you can practise from both sides.

Points of attention:

• This is a good time to look at different techniques of your players and polish them.
• When turning and dribbling, the ball must stay on the stick.
• There is only one point at C, so players should not get in each other's way and look for the next ball to enter play.
• All balls are played into the forehand of the teammates.

Purpose
:The purpose is to teach you how to make space for your teammates by claiming a defender to you.

Set-up:

1. It looks like the player at point A is going to take the ball out, but instead of doing so he leaves the ball and runs to point C.
2. At the moment that the player at A runs away, the player at point B takes over his position.
3. The player with the defender at point C runs in as soon as he sees the player at point A leave the ball and run towards him.
4. The ball is taken out towards point D.
5. At point D the ball is taken out and played to point C. After playing the ball this player walks to point E.
6. The player now at point C plays the ball to the player running to point E.

Variations:

• You can also mirror the exercise on the other side.
• When D can bounce the ball instead of taking it and playing it, the speed increases significantly.
• When C can also rebound, this increases the speed and effectiveness
• You can also give the C defender a more active role by having him try to get in front of his man.

Points of attention

• The smoother the exercise runs, the harder it is to defend it.
• Passes must be accurate for the exercise to be successful.
• Because there are many changes of position, it is important that you explain the exercise step by step.

• Player 1 plays the ball with a hard push into the attacker who has come running from the spot.
• The attacker takes the ball strongly and passes it back.
• Player 1 plays the ball to the side.
• The player on the side plays the ball directly to the corner.
• Now the team can shift via the left.
