Hockey: Dummy Short Corner

I love using Sportplan. It's been a great help for co-ordinating hockey...

Laura, Hockey Coach

DESCRIPTION

Need 2 players with a good drag flick, first striker looks to drag flick but drags it square for second shooter to run onto it and drag flick from angle at goal.

Goalie, should come out and plant feet ready for straight shot and not be ready for angled shot.

Double Move left then cross to far post:

Players line up as shown in the diagram. The ball is pushed out to the top of the circle for the striker (Blue 3) to dummy over the top of the ball. The stopper then passes the ball to the left to Blue 5 who then passes to the injector who has made a lead in towards the goal before coming out to receive the ball.

The injector then passes the ball to Blue 6 on the far post to deflect the ball in.
