Skating Warmup Drill

Drill Diagram

Description

Repeats in all 4 corners.

Players make a loop around the circle with crossovers and skate up to the redline. Lateral crossovers across the redline to the middle of the ice. Backwards back to the blue line, turn forwards, catch a pass from coach and shoot.

Coaches: Demonstrate at each corner to ensure kids don't get lost. Tell next player to go when player in front of them finishes the circle.

Notes: Extra coaches in middle helping with crossovers, in corners adjusting pass catching and shooting technique.
