Three players from each side run the drill at the same time.
When skater 1 gets to the blue line skater 2 starts and skater 3 starts when skater 2 gets to the blue line.

Make sure the players are taking shots from the same area of the ice so the goaltender doesn't have to move too much. (Inside the circle above the hash marks)

Use as a conditioning drill

Notes: This is a great drill to make your players get used to accelerating through a turn. Make sure you tell them to move their feet through the turn and not to glide through it.

Over time you should see the players getting better at moving their feet through the turn, which will help improve acceleration.
