Hockeyexercises for technique warming-up

• Set up the situation twice.

• Then you encounter three hurdles that increase from low to high, which you must jump over.
• Along the way, take a bag from the bucket with you.
• Which team is the first to have all the bags on the other side and then sprint to the other side as the first team?
• The final sprint can only begin once the last bag is placed!

• Each player receives a number.
• Swiss ball in the middle.
• Players stand in a circle around the Swiss ball.

• Players circle around the ball, sideways or backwards-forwards.
• When a number is called, the player responds, takes the ball and throws it at the players who have run away.
• Add-on: The player who is hit takes the Swiss ball and tries to hit someone else.

• Move around the circle.
• Respond to changes in direction.
• Improvement of movement and focus enhancement.

• Begin with one designated tagger.
• The remaining players have a few seconds to run away.
• When the tagger touches someone, they form a chain by holding each other's hands.

• There is one tagger, and the rest of the players try to grab the elastics and eventually the tennis ball from two sides of the square.
• If the tagger tags you, you must return the elastic and try again.

• Make the game more challenging by removing the player who is tagged from the game.
• Enlarge the square to make the game easier.

• The player jumps over the hurdle and then jumps from the landing spot with one leg into the hoop and back for the next hurdle. Repeat this until the end.
• Jump sideways over the hurdle and then jump with one leg into the two hoops. At the outer hoop, jump back next to the hurdle.
• Jump sideways over one hurdle and back. With one large step, jump to the other hurdle, jump over it and back.
