Can anyone please help me with a full training program for mini hockey for 6 weeks. The kidz are in Grade 2(8 yrs old), practise 2 a week for 45 min and play league games 1 a week.
Hi Nanine,
Ok - the best thing to do is try the search bar. This should be at the top of the page - this will find you drills, answered coach's questions and lesson plans.
The answers pages in particular are a goldmine of advice, with answers to a number of coaching problems from other experienced coaches - so it's worth a quick search and read through past questions about "mini-hockey" , "U8s" and "Juniors" for help on this topic.
Here's a good couple of past answers to help you get started:
Q. 1st ever training Session Structure?
Q. Best method to teach junior aside players positions and responsibilities?
Best of luck with your coaching!

Pre-season fitness fades fast once the league starts. Build conditioning into ball work and use rolling subs well to keep your squad sharp all season.
