Figure 8 Passing and Stick Handling (Skills)
This drill was created using HockeyShare.com's Online Drill Drawing & Practice Planning Platform.
Description
X1 skates with the puck and in motion passes (1) to O1 who gives a pass (2) back. X1 crosses through the middle of pylons does a tight turn around pylon 2 and passes (3) back to O1. O1 returns another pass (4) to X1 who crosses through the middle of the pylons again and does a tight turn around pylon 1 and makes another pass (5) to O1. O1 makes one last pass (6) leading X1 to the far pylon. X1 then becomes X2 and gap passes with X3. Once they get to the far boards X3 (who was skating backwards) joins the line to become the passer and X2 skates back to become X3.
Notes: Move O1 to the other side for passes on different hands. Players should use forehand or backhand for passes depending on handiness and position of O1.
