Goalie Awareness Drill
Description
High paced passing and goalie movement drill.
Set up as shown, rules are as follows :
1) all passes must be 1 touch passes
2) goalies can not come out past the goal line
On the coaches whilst players start passing the puck around the circle in any pattern they choose, mix it up as you are trying to make the goalie move and track the puck
At some point the coach will tweet the whistle and the player with the puck turns and shoots right away , all players rotate in a clockwise rotation and coaches give them another puck and drill starts over again
Do same drill on both circles at the same time, after all 4 players have been in all 4 positions those players move out and the next group moves in , players switch sides and drill continues.
Goalies and players must all be in full concentration , goalies need to be ready for a shot at any moment and players must be ready for a pass at any moment from any player around the circle
