Hockey drills

• Place pilon to form a little slalom.
• Increase speed
• customize slalom
• finish at goal at the end of the slalom

• Use in a relay race; dribble around the hoops and dribble back in one go.
• through the hoop

• hoop on a pilon and play through it (hold the hoop and play or crawl through it
  
  
  

• Dribble through the mines and make sure you don't hit them, then score on target.
• dribble through the mines faster and faster, avoid hitting them.
• Pilons are getting closer together
• throw loose mines in front of the children's feet that they have to dodge

• Player A dribbles the ball to the next pilon and then plays the ball to player B.
• After playing the ball player A runs to player B's place.
• Player B does the same and plays the ball to player C.

• Put the pilons as shown in the figure
• Spread the balls over pilons C and D.
• In this exercise you place a player at pilons C and D.
• The rest of the team will line up at pilon A.
• From A onwards, the player walks around the pilon
• From the post, 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 turns right open
• A runs in the direction of the circle and finishes at goal. 
• From here he runs to D and receives another ball. 
• The player turns open to the left and finishes on goal again.

Passing and scoring

• Each pilon has a player on it.
• Player A plays wide to the left to player B and chases the ball.
• Player B plays the ball diagonally to the right to player C and chases the ball
• Player C plays wide to the left to player D and chases the ball
• Player D plays diagonally to the right the ball to player E and chases after the ball
• Player E takes on and scores with flat / stroke
• Player E continues to the left around the extra pilons (out of practice) back to position A

Variation:

• Balls start on the left from position B (pilon/position A is omitted), before that a pilon is added to the edge circle (position F).
• player 1 plays the ball from position B diagonally to the right to player 2 at position C and chases the ball
• Player on C plays wide to left to player in position D and chases after the ball
• Player in position D plays the ball diagonally to the right to player E and chases after the ball
• Player in position E plays wide to the left to player in position F and chases the ball
• Player in position F takes on the fh or high bh and scores with a (backhand) stroke and
• Runs outside the exercise to start position (B)

Variation 2:

• 2 rows of players behind pilons A and B
• Player 1 plays the ball wide to the left and runs straight to position C
• player 2 takes the ball and plays player 1 diagonally to the right in the fh while running (towards position C) and runs straight ahead towards position D.
• player 1 takes the ball in the fh around position C and plays the ball wide / backwards back to player 2 (towards position D) and runs to position E
• player 2 takes the ball (preferably with fh) and with foot position in direction E and plays the ball diagonally forward back to player 1 (direction E: rather just in the circle / edge circle than behind player 1)
• player 1 takes on and strikes / fats as fast as possible towards goal (do not bring the ball back) and runs outside exercise back to position B

Variation on 2:

• After that player 2 has delivered the ball to player 1 the 2nd time / last time, he / she becomes (passive) defender at the next set
• the defender is not allowed to go into the circle (or rather not even behind the line (position C/D) from where he/she started (position D)
• takes off the ball then floats over a line between position A and B.
• The 2 players that come up stay inside the box (width of pass lines) but are free in construction, they may also cross behind, cross over but no passes in the air (no lifts).
• the No. 1 scores and, just like the defender, runs outside back to another position. The No. 2 becomes defender

Accents:

• hands apart while controlling
• foot positioning open
• control it for a follow-up pass or even a quick bounce back
• Score after 2 contacts (control, max 1 other touch) 
  • see hands/feet position/distance from the ball at hitting and flats accents

• Divide the team into three groups per line.
• As stroke technique only allow: push, slide and short strokes.
• The strike force must be fast and HARD 
• Assuming the ball remains in the stick (the stick should move slightly backwards).
• via a pilon pattern from the center line, the group must bring 3 balls from the center line to the 23 mtr line and bring them into the circle.
• One of the group members must receive the ball in the circle in the scoring zone and try to score. 

• Player 1 plays the ball to player 2
• Player 2 plays the ball to player 3
• Player 3 plays the ball to player 4
• Player 4 finishes on target
• Everyone runs to where he passes and when you've shot at goal you start at Player 1's spot

• Player 2 runs in front of the defender (line of pilons). 
• Then player 1 plays the ball to player 2 performing an open control and runs towards the circle.
• Then player 2 finishes the attack.
• The same happens to players 3 and 4.
• In this exercise you can switch between open/closed controls.

  
  

• Player 1 runs with the ball to the circle and shoots
• Player 4 plays the ball to the left where player 2 and defender 1 are running in (2v1)
• Player 4 plays the ball to the right where player 3 and defender 2 come running in (3v2)
• Player 4 runs with a ball into the circle and finishes off the attack (4v2)

• receive the ball either forehand or backhand,
• receive with a forehand and turn quickly to your left side.
• receive with a backhand and turn quickly to your right side.
• While under pressure:
  • receive on the side were the defender is positioned, turn away quickly and speed up

• recieve the ball on your forehand or backhand,
• recieve forehand and turn strong to your left site.
• recieve backhand and turn strong to your right site.
• under press:
  • recieve on the side were the defender is and recieve strong turn the other way and speed up
