"W" Drill

Diagrams     

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

Description

X1 and O1 start off at the same time, skating diagonally to the blue line, where they perform a controlled stop with a puck. This is repeated for each line until they reach the other end of the ice surface.
X2 and O2 perform the same patern back, performing the next key point.
Each progression will focuss on the next key point.

Notes: To increase the difficulty, coaches can wait at the transition points (lines), providing defensive resistance (stick checking).

Focus should be on control, balance, bent knees, proper use of edges, etc.
