1) Split team up in half, starting in one end as shown.
2) On whistle, first player from each line starts off backwards and skates across ice to far neutral zone faceoff dot.
3) At dot, player pivots forward toward the sideboard.
4) Player then continues to skate forward to next neutral zone faceoff dot.
5) At that dot, the player then pivots toward the opposite corner of ice and skates backwards to that end.
6) Players need to keep heads up so the don't skate into each other.
7) Next player in line starts skating when the skater before him reaches middle of ice.

Notes: 1) Can have the players start off the drill skating forward.
2) Can add pucks to add additional skill element to drill.
