Simple drills can be extremely effective in developing skills in players if you key on very specific movements and techniques. This week’s video shows a “simple” agility skating drill to develop transition footwork for defensemen. Despite the “simple” pattern, the actual execution of the drill is fairly difficult -- especially while handling a puck. The closer the cones are together, the more compact the transition areas become. The drill forces players to prepare their transitions even though it may not be comfortable to execute.

Kevin, where can we found that triangle we need for that drill ? I’m in France and I’ve never seen that before !!!
