ADM SMH #5
Station 1 - Small game - knockout/musical pucks - Travel teams play knockout, house plays musical pucks. Knockout - each player has a puck. They skate around the inside of the circle and try to knock the other players pucks away while keeping control of their own. Musical pucks - put one less puck in the center. Have the players skate around the outside of the circle working on cross-overs without sticks. On the coaches signal they dive into the middle to try and get a puck. Players without a puck are out. Continue rounds by removing players and pucks. Out players continue to skate around the circle, but can't enter to get a puck. Change direction once the game is over and restart.
Station 2 - skating/stickhandling/shooting - Players skate backwards to the cone. Once they reach the cone, they pivot toward the boards and sprint to the blue line. Players skate across the blue line and pick up a puck. They stickhandle around the 2 cones and then shoot on net.
Station 3 - skating - backwards starts and stops - vStops, sideways stops, powerful first stride c-cut starts
- Backward Stop to Forward Start
- Crossover Start Backward
- Forward Stop to Backward Start
- Single Leg Backward Stop - T push start
Station 4 - Skating - cross-overs - players skate 2 or 3 at a time. Perform 1) forwards cross overs, 2) backwards cross overs. Run all the players through 2 times and then reverse the direction. 3) forward to backwards pivots in both directions having players always face the clock. Have the players perform 2 revolutions around the circle each time they go. House team will do a slightly different drill. They will place their sticks on the ice in 2 vertical lines. each line start on the right side of the first stick and players will practice stepping over the stick with the outside leg (crossover) while moving in a straight line up to the next stick. They loop back around and start on the left hand side of the stick this next time.
Station 5 - small area game - 3 on 2 transition - select two players from each team and place them in them in the zone. Select another player from each team and put them on the side (marked by circles on the diagram). Players must pass to their teammate on the side and he/she enters the play 3on2. If the opposing players gain possession of the puck, they pass to their side player and the other teams player must go back to the side. Opposite teams now play 3on2.
Station 6 - Passing - Ricky Bobbys - X19 starts with the puck and shoots on goal. X19 immediately skates to the post diagonally across from him and faces the X17. X17 passes down to X19. X17 starts to skate to the net and gets a pass back from X19. X17 tries to one time it (no Stickhandling)
