- 5 forecheckers start at center ice
- 5 defenders at each end
- Coach dumps puck in, defenders attempt to break out, or play d-zone coverage, depending on how quickly the forecheckers get in
- Forecheckers execute whichever forechecking system the coach designates
- Play continues until defending team breaks out, or until the forecheckers score
- If defending team breaks out, forecheckers peel off as soon as puck crosses blue line. After breaking out, the defenders cross the red line, dump it in, and become the NEW forecheckers at the other end.
- If the forechecking team scores, coach blows two quick whistles to kill the play, then dumps a new puck into the far end. Defending team hustles to the far end to become the NEW forecheckers.

DRILL IS CONTINUOUS
