Description

3rd Man High

• 3v3 Purple vs. Black.
• To begin, Coach spots puck to purple on offense.
• Offensive team can never have more than two offensive players on offensive side of mid-line.
• "High Man" can patrol the mid-line and look to find space.
• Once black gains possession of the puck, one of the three must stay behind the mid-line as they transition to opposite end.

**"high man" can interchange at any point with another player on his/her team as long as there is always one player above the mid-line. **

Concepts:
• Keeping the puck moving - avoid stops on pucks.
• Finding F3 in the "sweet spot"
• High exchange (F & D)
