This intermediate drill focuses on quick passing, defensive regroup puck movement and timing. This drill requires relatively advanced passing abilities and good timing abilities to execute effectively.  I would also recommend having at least 9 forwards and 6 defensemen to run this drill.

4 Corner Passing – Stretch Pass

Posted by Kevin - Filed under: Hockey Drills
Tags: , ,

Lately I’ve been receiving a lot of requests for some more advanced drills.  This drill is a variation on one of my favorite drills (4 Corner Passing).  The variation focuses primarily on stretch passes and timing.  I would recommend this drill for Bantams or older, as some of the younger teams will not be able to move the puck quick enough or execute the cross-body pass effectively to keep the timing of the drill.  This video walks through the drill and explains some key portions. The entire drill was drawn using the HockeyShare Drill Diagrammer.
