Hockey drills

• The exercise is meant to simulate a game.
• It is therefore intended that one team consists of the defenders/defending midfielders and the other team consists of the attackers.
• The attackers can score in the normal goal (decide if they can hit high as in the game).
• The defending side can score by driving the ball.
• Over the line of the goals on the half way line.   
• The attackers learn to play over and finish at goal and the defending side learns to defend to the outside.  

   

• Put out six pilons in a row with +/- five meters between each pilon.
• This is best done on the 23 meter line as shown in figure 1. 
• Again make two rows and let the team sprint from the sideline to the first pylon and back, then from the sideline to the second pylon and back.
• Repeat this until the sixth pylon. 
• After these sprint exercises let the team run half a lap. 

• Flat
• Open reception,
• Accelerate & push pass out of the barrel (alternate with other techniques such as stroke, push pass, backhand pass).
• A flats to B (A runs after own ball);
• B takes it open and runs around the pilon.
• B accelerates with the ball stuck to the stick and plays the ball through the gates to A.
• Resumption

open and closed receptions

• Number one calls "open" or "closed" and then plays the ball to number two.
• Number two comes running into the ball and takes it on according to what was called.
• Then number two calls "open" or "closed" and plays the ball to number three.
• Number three enters the ball and takes it on according to what was called again.
• Then number three runs over the back line into the circle and plays it at the head of the circle to number four.
• Number four finishes on target.

• put out a square as shown in the drawing.
• Make teams of 3 people.
• There must always be one pilon open.
• Start with the ball at person 1, person must always have 2 possibilities.
• If person 1 passes to person 3, person 2 must move one square.
• This is how the exercise continues.

• 1 plays the ball using the bar to 2

  2 runs in, controls the ball, moves towards the axis of the pitch and plays via the bar to 3

  3 runs in, takes on and plays to the running-through number 2

  2 Takes on and shoots (high) on target

  
  

  
  

  Same for 4,5,6 if there are enough players for that

  
  

  Press and hold 1-2-3-1 (or 1-2-3-4-5-6-1)

• 3 persons stand at the pilons and try not to let the player in the middle touch the ball. 
• It is important that the diagonal pass is not made possible. 
• So the players without the ball have to stand in the corners compared to the player with the ball.

Variation:

• Attacker plays to defender, and plays the ball back to the attacker.
• Then the attacker is allowed to attack towards goal. 
• At 1, the ball begins and passes to the defender who then passes it to the out-going attacker. 
• From there it is 2 to 1
• See number 2, only the players remain and it becomes a 4 against 2.

Game with different variations:

• with grip
• with globe
• with stick in weird position
• with other balls

• Player A runs left towards the pilon straight ahead and retrieves the ball so that the pilon is played out. 
• Then player A passes the ball deep on to player B, who runs in.
• Player B puts the ball back to player A
• Player A finishes.

Then player A does the task of player B and vice versa. 

• Each player takes a pilon.
• Fields of about 10x5 are made.
• The pilon is placed in the middle of the back lines.

The aim is to play past your opponent and dribble the ball over the pilon. IT IS NOT ALLOWED TO SHOOT FROM 10 METERS!

The winner goes one square to the right and the loser goes one square to the left. Rounds of -/+ 2 minutes

• Player 1 asks the ball in front of the pilons and receives the ball from player 3. 
• At that moment player 2 grabs a ball and dribbles to the back line.
• Player 1 runs with his/her ball to the circle and finishes there.
• Then player 1 runs to the penaltyspot where he/she receives the ball from player 3.
• The ball is then finished on goal again.
