Field Hockey: Forehand lift over stick

Great drills and practices thank you. Have used to great success for...
Steve, Clayesmore Prep School

DESCRIPTION

To do this skill the players should run to the left of each wooden stick and reverse stick drag the ball to their right, then forehand lift the ball, under control, over the wooden stick.

COACHING POINTS

- Make sure the player is performing a large drag as well as the lift. The elimination skill comes from the combination of both
- Using the momentum of the ball will allow less experienced players to lift the ball easier

PROGRESSION

- Change the angle of the sticks to encourage players to lift their heads up, and realise what's infront of them before they get there
- Input passive defenders to better recreate game situations
