Hockeyexercises for technique push pass

• Warm up through a combination of passing, running, and receiving on the move and from a standstill.

• The player at position A passes the ball straight to the player at position B.
• The player at position B passes the ball to the player at position C and runs towards point A.
• The player at position C receives the ball at point D and passes it to point A.
• For rotation, player A moves to B, B goes via D to C, and C moves to A.

• Variations in striking techniques can be applied (hit, push, slap).
• Distances can be adjusted to vary the difficulty level.
• Cones can be placed for passing in between to increase precision.
• Smaller cones increase the difficulty level.
• The ball from C to D can be rebounded.
• The ball from D to A can be rebounded.
• Point C can be placed on the other side for backhand and forehand variation.
• With a 90-degree setup of points B and C, the exercise can be performed from a different angle.
• Different scenarios can be set up to vary the exercise: standard, mirrored, 90-degree setup.

• As a trainer, observe the different techniques of the players.
• Stay low when receiving.
• When passing the ball from C to D, ensure the ball does not overshoot towards A.
• The player from B must receive the ball perpendicularly.
• Pass to the forehand whenever possible.
• Be ready to receive a ball (low to the ground, stick on the ground).

Purpose
: To get warm through a combination of passing, running, and picking up in the run and from standstill.

Format
:This exercise is also known from volleyball. The pawns are not exactly in a triangle. It is possible, depending on the number of players, to set up a multiple of the exercise.

1. The player at A passes the ball straight to the player at B.
2. The player at B plays the ball to the player at C and runs towards point A.
3. The player at C receives the ball at point D and passes it to point A.
4. For the changeover, A runs to B, B via D to C and C to A.

Variations:

• Variations can be made in terms of stroke. (hit, push, flats)
• The distances can be made larger or smaller to adjust the level of difficulty.
• Pawns can be placed to play in between. This is to increase the purity. When you make the cones smaller, the degree of difficulty increases.
• To play the ball from C to D there can be bounced.
• To play the ball from D to A you can play bounce.
• You can also place point C on the other side so that you reverse backhand and forehand.
• When you place point C at 90 degrees from point B, you can do the same exercise, only then you will hit point D from a different angle.
• When you set up different situations, you can rotate the exercise. Situation A is the standard, in situation B the exercise is mirrored, in situation C the exercise is set up so that point B and C are at 90 degrees from each other and situation D is a mirror of situation C.

Points of attention:

• As a trainer you can take a good look at the different techniques of your players.
• Sit low at the take-off.
• When playing the ball from C to D, the ball may not shoot too far in the direction of A. The intention is that the player coming from B should take the ball at right angles.
• Play the ball on the forehand where possible.
• Stand ready to receive the ball. (low to the ground, stick on the ground)

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.
