Partner Support Double Pass

Drill Diagram

Description

Co dumps puck into the corner. D1 skates backwards, then pivots forward to retrieve the puck. D2 skates backward to the front of the net (important to stress going to here prior to moving for a breakout pass). D2 then supports D1 by pivoting to the far post. D1 passes to D2. D2 skates to the far corner of the rink. D1 maintains proper support (1/2 the ice apart max). When D2 reaches the corner, he returns a pass to D1. D1 then quickly makes a breakout pass to Co #2.
