This is a list of floor hockey drills I've used while coaching 6th - 9th grade players. These skills are difficult to teach, but my team had about 10 minutes prior to each game. We played with a soft orange puck, but you may be using a ball for which most of these drills still apply. If you have any questions please contact me via twitter at @AlecBerg. |
