In one of your weekly email, Sportplan advertised a Junior 10 week Hockey Session Plan, is this still available and if so,  where can I download this from please?? I need the plan to suit various skill levels of players as we've got a mixed ability of players to coach in the session.

Space, the final frontier.

Giving my age away there, but we are a rapidly growing club with an influx of Junior players threatening to overwhelm us. Can anyone give me advice as to how many children can be safely accommodated on a full sized hockey pitch? We hope to have a coach to player ratio average of 1%3A10, lower for younger age groups.

How do I motivate my Hockey Players! HELP

I have recently taken on the role involving coaching junior hockey players (aged 10-13) who mostly have never played hockey before, and are very uninterested. Their basics are not good enough to play some games. How do I motivate them, and what kind of things shall I do in my session?

Ball "squirting" ahead as players go faster

How to coach fast attackers to control the pace of the ball as they accelerate? At higher speeds, the players' touch on the ball needs to be "softer" but this requires hands and feet to work at varying intensity. I see a lot of speedsters push the ball too far ahead of themselves, the faster they go. The outcome is often a failed shot at goal because the ball runs out of reach or out over the back line.

What side a short corner should be taken

At a recent junior hockey match, the ref indicated the short corner must be taken from the side of the goal where the infringement took place. This threw the team off as they only practiced taken short corners from the one side.Anybody that can give clarity on whether this is the rule?

Re involving GKs in junior coa...

I really struggle to make practice fun and useful for the GKs. My attention is naturally focussed on the outfield players, meaning most of the time I simply have drills finishing with a shot on goal to keep the GK involved. Pretty boring for them. Any ideas how I can involve them more? Thanks, Charlie

I have been using Sportplan now for 3 years and can honestly say that I have never repeated the same session twice. My girls are always focused and are improving every year. Thanks Sportplan.

Debbie Cross Australia

What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
