Diagrams     

This drill was created using HockeyShare.com's Online Drill Drawing & Practice Planning Platform.

Description

Skate the course as shown carrying a puck. Borders should be placed so the kids are not performing power turns, but they are using lateral crossovers. The straight line formation, they can use inside edges for a "rhythm skate" or they can perform crossovers as well.

Basic: Have them skate the course and vary where they pick up a puck.

Advanced: Perform mohawks down the middle, or transitions. Coaches can also stand behind the border and make them protect the puck.
