Hockey: Running onto the ball and keep moving

Excellent, used the drills at our first training session today with...
Shane, Hockey Coach

DESCRIPTION

Playere lined up in a relay with 1 ball.

Player starts by running with the ball into the grid and pass the ball to the player opposite. Player 2 has to run onto the moving ball collect and keep moving to pass the ball back to the other side .for player 3 to run onto the ball.

Each player has to run to the back of the opposite side each time they have passed the ball.

COACHING POINTS

Good practice for learning to intercept the ball in defence and continue to attack all in one move.

Bottom hand on the stick needs to be low and strong.

Keep the stick head in contact with the pitch through out the move other wise the ball will spin away and get to close to the feet.
