Hockey drills

• Each team has 5 inverted pylons to defend.
• The pylons are on the line and the players may only stand/defend on their own half.
• Which team knocks over the pylons of the other first.

• Everybody's got an inverted pylon he puts in the area.
• Everyone protects his own pylon and tries to shoot another pylon (the owner gets a penalty point; who has the most/least penalty point after 5 minutes?).

• The children are placed in 2 rows.
• The trainer stands just behind the 2 rows and rolls a ball forward.
• The front 2 players try to conquer the ball.
• The player in possession
• drives the ball towards the goal.
• The other tries to conquer the ball again.
• From a marked point, the ball may not be taken away and the player in possession makes a shot at goal.

• Run towards goal, play the ball to the left towards the trainer, the trainer plays the ball back into the runner's stick.
• After receiving the ball, he finishes on target.

• Player A runs towards pylon 1 or 2, whichever player B designates.
• A runs back to his starting place.
• Then A plays the ball to B.
• Player B does the same

• 2 groups of 5 hoops.
• All 5 children are standing at a hoop
• One of the kids has the ball and starts pushing to each other.
• Which group is the first to play the ball 3 times around (counterclockwise).
• Of course you can also have 2 groups of 4

• defense intercepts the ball
• the ball is played to the right back
• the middle right pulls in so that the flank is open
• the back right plays the ball into the depths to the striker 
• the striker pulls out to take the ball along the line

The flower (without or with ball):

• start at pilon 1 > to the center of the flower
• hitting each of the 4 surrounding pilons 1 by 1
• run back to pilon 1
• variations:
  • with stick and ball
  • relay race

• This is a good exercise for conditioning: 
• The group has to stand in a row and you let them start dribbling. 
• As soon as the trainer blows his whistle, the last one of the row should run forwards. 
• You do this until everyone has been there and then you let them finish running the track.

• Two teams with subs, there's a change if there's a score.
• Each person defends a goal, there are five goals on each field, so there are also five people defending these goals.
• If a goal is scored in your goal, you have to sit on the side and switch.
• A new player (sub) enters the field from the side and defends the goal.
• If there's a goal, it's a point.
• The team with the most points at the end of the match is the winner.

• The exercises can be played in 2 variations: the one for real beginning hockey players (this exercise can be used for a clinic for example) and the one for beginning hockey players who have already been in contact with hockey.
• Variant 1:
• Player 1 plays the ball to player 2, he takes the ball and passes on to player 3.
• Player 3 takes the ball and shoots at goal.
• Player 4 tries to stop the ball with the bottom of the foot or with the stick.
• Player 4 picks up the ball and joins the row at the back of the starting pilon of player 1.
• For safety's sake, don't shoot at goal when player 4 takes the ball. 
• The balls can also be taken out of the goal later on or use a break for that.
• This is for safety reasons.

• 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.
