Description

The emphasis of this hockey game is to get forwards moving without the puck. As soon as the game starts, the coach passes to a forward. The forward must pass to their teammate and immediately jump to an open cone. They are only allowed to leave a cone after they make a pass. After 5 consecutive passes, the forwards are awarded a shot on net. If the defense intercepts the pass, the game starts over with a new puck. The defense should focus on stops and starts with an active stick.

Players: 3 forwards and 1 defender. The goalies are optional.
Space: Can be a station, or half-ice.
Variations: Can make the playing space smaller or larger. You can add in more cones. You can move the cones to different areas. Can require more or fewer passes. If the defense is getting the puck too often you can have them flip over their stick. You can also set this up to be a 3 vs 2.
