Hockey drills for technique build-up
- The exercise is done along two sides.
- Start with a dribble, push the ball and then run to the head of the circle, get the ball back and finish.
Goal:
- Taking out over the side
- Build up over the flank
- Get to the back line and then pass to goal
Points of attention:
- Playing the ball into the forehand.
- Moving behind the ball.
- Player plays the ball hard through push 1 ==> 2 runs directly after her/his pass
- Flattens the ball hard over long distance 2 ==> 3
- Drives the ball to the back line and passes to 4
- Takes to round at pace on goal
- B starts running around the pawn triangle
- At the middle pawn it gets the ball
- And then plays the ball back to A
- B runs further in
- It receives the ball in the backhand
- In the exercise from the other side, you are played into your forehand
- When B has taken the ball, he plays it to C
- C has run past the pawns in the meantime
- C takes the ball and runs past the pawns back to the dead ball line
- Passes the ball in front of the goal to B.
- B then rounds the ball into the goal
You can do this exercise on both sides of the pitch so that you can pass faster in succession.
- A plays the ball to B
- B plays the ball to C who has run up to the green pawns
- C runs along the pawn line and passes the ball to A who has run through to the circle
- A then finishes on goal
You can perform this exercise on both sides.
Divide your group into 2 teams.
- Red player in center plays defender in and gets ball back. 2 - 1 hockey out in the 'forbidden' zone.
- Right blue player starts with ball and plays defender in, plays back to blue and a 3 - 3 starts in the 'forbidden' zone and right field.
- Defenders may score in the goal if the ball is intercepted.
- After this attack, an attack starts from the left.
- Player red plays into the defender, plays back and a 4-4 in the whole 23 meter area starts.
- Defenders can defend by scoring in one of the goals.
On offense -with advantage- or off-ball, pass immediately to next attack.
Add extra: Scoring within 10/15 sec. Start when the attacker receives the ball back from the defender.
- V1 starts with the ball
- V2 comes running in and gets the ball from V1
- V2 takes the ball open and passes to V3
- V2 runs right through to offer his pass to V3
- V3 passes the ball back to V2, who runs into the circle and completes
- A passes the ball to B when V3 has given the ball to V2
- B passes the ball outside where C presents himself
- It now becomes a 3 vs.
- V1, V2, V3 are going to try to defend the goal
- A, B, C want to score on the goal
- If the defense takes the ball away, they can score in the goal on the side
- Party game with two goals and a square in the middle of the field.
- The ball may not be played through the square. In that case the ball is in touch.
- So the idea is to play field hockey outside and not through the axis of the field.
- With a walk-in ball
- Playing a right front
Learning to attack using space over right.
Defending out using a feint flat:
- Position yourself well in relation to the opponent.
- Make a feint as if you are going to flatten the ball.
- Change technique at the last moment and play the ball calmly.
- Ensure good communication with your fellow players.
- Stay alert to any pressure from the opponent and adjust your action accordingly.
