Age Group Levels - ABC's of International HockeyCoaching: A Program to Develop the Complete Player
A complete hockey curriculum for any Sports Club, National Organization or Local Hockey Association. A natural progression of skills, game understanding and good habits to keep the game fun and develop creative players. Only use this curriculum if you want your players to be skilled and love the game.
Two themes of the ABC program are:
"Enjoy the Game"
"The Game is the Greatest Coach"
These PDF's have drills and games for the various levels of hockey. I will assume the player is starting at age six but it really doesn't matter as an adult starting will need to move through the same progression. Everyone needs to learn the same skills and they get more complex as the player improves and is mature enough to understand team play. The levels follow the growth and development of a person. Up until puberty the player is focused on his/her family and themselves and they should learn individual skills. The Golden Years of 'Learning' when we learn the fastest are the 4 years before puberty and skills and good playing habits should be the focus. After puberty we focus more on our friends and now are ready to learn team play. When the joints harden after growing is finished we can push harder and work on speed and power,

I co-authored this coaching program with Juhani Wahlsten of Turku, Finland. He had been working on it for a few years before I met him. Juhani played in 3 Olympics and 7 World Championships for Finland. Was captain of the team for many of those tournaments. He is in the IIHF Hall of Fame as a player/coach. Two other coaches collaborated with us and made many contributions. Vladimir Jursinov of Russia, another IIHF Hall of Fame coach/ player and coach of multiple Russian and Soviet Olympic Teams, who had many discussions with Juhani about skill development. Erkka Westerlund supported the program and contributed lots of ideas, especially with Transition Games. Erkka coached Finland in the 2014 and 2006 Olympics, winning medals each time and currently is head coach of Jokerit in the KHL. I also coached a season with Slava Lener, Czech Olympic coach and head of hockey in the Czech Republic. Pierre Page in Salzburg had a development focus as we had coaches from all the hockey nations on staff. Reilly USA, Routsalainen Finland, Barda Czech, Medric Slovakia, Melinder and Brithen Sweden, Jursinov Russia. (Also coached at the U of Calgary with future NHL coaches like Willie Desjardins, Mike Johnston, Tim Bothwell but at that time their focus wasn't player development. I would always go with Terry Johnson a former NHLer to learn things about playing defense.) George Kingston brought international world class coaches to the U of Calgary every summer for 9 years to give two week seminars and I listened to them all. Also I have done many camps around the USA and Canada as well as Norway, Finland, Mexico, South Korea, Czech Republic and Austria. So what I am trying to say is that these experiences have given me a pretty good idea about player development around the world.
Enough of how wonderful I am but I think it is important to know that this material comes from a lot smarter hockey men than myself. I am the messenger.

The pdf below has lists of drills and games that have the same theme.
International and Pro Postings
I was just looking at the drills sections and beginning with Drill Section Ten was able to put on more international examples of practice ideas.
The World U20 tournament was in Calgary 2012 and all of the teams were practicing in our 4 rink complex at the same time and made it possible to take short clips of the various drills from every major hockey nation and edit them later to post here. In the next few years many international teams came here to prepare for the 2014 Olympics and both the Finnish and Czech U17 teams came to play in tournaments and also practiced at the same complex. I know the Czech and Finnish coaches and got some great material from them. I also get sent things from various coaches around the world that I post on this site. Calgary has every level of hockey: pro university college, Jr. Major Jr.. I take clipd of things I see them doing as well.
In 07-08 was I finished my fifth year coaching college women and was offered a coaching position in Salzburg and went to Austria to coach with the Red Bulls and got to watch coaches from every hockey nation run practices and sat in the same room with them for 7 months. I decided not to return with about a month left so took a lot of video clips so I could remember the drills they did. When I returned I coached in the pro women's WWHL for two seasons until it folded and them U18 AAA girls's for three years. Now I am coaching in the Royals organization, last year with U15 Bantam boy's and next year with U18. I take video of these teams doing the drills that only I do or have seen but didn't have a camera with.
I am always looking for new practice ideas and would be doing all of this for myself but since Dwight was nice enough to set up this site for me it is easy to share my data base and hope that coaches around the world use the ideas they like to run effective practices.
I am always saddened by the fact that most of the hockey organizations don't have a curriculum with a progressive scope and sequence like the one we prepared for the Austrian Association. It was created by Finnish legend Juhani Wahlsten with input from another IIHF Hall of Famer, Jursinov the Russian legend also the head of Czech Hockey and the coach of the Finnish Olympic team are friends who contributed ideas. NA associations produce a lot of great material but there is no standard 'hockey curriculum' that all players progress through. What results would our schools get if every teacher did what they thought was needed and there was no curriculum to follow.
When 80% of the players quit by15 that is a pretty big Red Flag. (inthe book 'Just Let the Play" they surveyed children on why they quit sports and the second highest of top ten reasons was theat they 'hate their practices.' )
The European programs are developed by educators and focus on development. Finland and Sweden have about 50 000 players each, Czech 30 000 and the other countries less. So they can't rely on player development from a random program like we do in NA. Canada and the USA have half a million players each and there are always some that will emerge as world class. It is a testament that these smaller countries can compete with us on the international stage. They have to have good development programs based on solid educational pedagogy.
The idea of this site is to supplement the ABC surriculum we prepared and be a resourse for coaches at every level to run efficient and enjoyable practices.
So Drills Sections Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen and Fourteen have everything from the first nine sections plus Ten Best Lists and Booklets.
I have gone through all the video now and converted it so I will start to write those drills up with descriptions and diagrams and post them in the forum.
B4 and B6 Pass and Replace – RB Pro

When I decided it was best to come home from coaching in Austria I took video of a lot of practices when it wasn't my turn to be on the ice. There were coaches there from Canada, USA, Russia, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Finland and Sweden; so video was a way to remember what they did on the ice.
I found forgotten files on a remote hard drive and have posted about 25 with the raw video that I converted and labelled and have some more to convert and post and then edit and prepare the diagram and descriptions.
Just looked at the viewings for the Austrian drills and there was 10 first one then 1 or 2. Not everything is earth shattering but there are some great flow and situation drills. If you can find 10 of the 30 that you like then you will be a better coach.
Austrian Pro Drills
www.hockeycoachingabcs.com/mediagallery/album.php?aid=46&page=1
This may be the best situation drill of all. It is game-like and full ice,, the players transition from offense to defense and a lot of read and respond is required .
Gene Reilly is running this drill. Gene is from Boston and is a lifer with a huge background coaching Jr. A with Bill Dineen, at Maine with Sean Walsh, working with Ottawa's AHL team with the assignment of teaching Jason Spezza the pro game. He also was an asst. coach at Harvard, Northeastern and now trying to rebuild the program at CC. Gene spent about five years with the Red Bulls and left there to be a pro scout for Carolina. He missed coaching and went back to the NCAA. A really, really hard working guy. I learned a lot from him.
Here is Babcock doing this same sequence as a transtion game with Detroit (coaches would be well advised to incorporate Transition Games after they use situation drills to teach the players. There is only one puck, no whistles and you just need to send more or less players to change the situation.)
DT100 Continuous 2-1, 2-2 Detroit – Pro

Video of the transition game.
hockeycoachingabcs.com/mediagallery/media.php?f=0&sort=0&s=20101208083750407
Detroit's supporting F and D are passive in this video but they could be active as in the drill and have a 2-1 in the nzone and 3-3 in each zone and then a 2-2 through the nzone and a 4-4 in each zone. A 3-2 situation creates a 5-5 in each zone and they are all great ways to practice offensive and defensive team play. If you have only 16 skaters you can get a 5-5 by having one D join the rush and the high F backeck on a continuous 2-2.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C6 - 1-1 to 2-2, 2-1 to 3-3, 2-2 to 4-4 - RB Pro

T1-2-3 - C2 2-1 Technique - RB Pro
Key Points:
This is a great formation for teaching as the players are close to the coach. Defenders close the gap right away and keep the puck on one side then it is really a 2-2 with the goalie playing the shooter. Attack with speed and cross the mid-line with the puck, a pass or a pass off the pads.
Description:
1. Start with F1 skating toward the red line and getting a pass from F2.
2. D1 skate up and close the gap before the blue line.

Description:
1. Attacker 1 pass to attacker 2 then take the ice behind by crossing to the middle.
2. Coach wants attacker 2 to skate to the wide lane and 1 cross to the middle.
3. Defender 1 and 2 skate out and close the gap right away.
4. Cross and drop before the blue line to cause the defenders to make coverage decisions.
5. Coach put in a new puck if the play ends right away and the 2 on 2 continues.
6. Attackers cross to cause confusion and defenders communicate to stay man on man or switch.
7. Cross to create a 2-1 vs. one defender.
8. Defenders must see their man and the puck and play on the defensive side.
9. Attackers fight for the offensive side and keep their sticks free for one touch shots and rebounds.
10. Either play F and D or everyone play all situations, which is better for development.
* I am adding a pdf. with all three of these drills together, 1-1, 2-1, 2-2, as it is a great teaching sequence.

Skating and Puck Handling Warm up - NCAA Div. 1 Female Freshman
A female player I have worked with 4 years does her warm-up with a puck including edges and balance. The idea is to reach as far as possible with the puck and separate the movement of the upper and lower body. Around the circles the puck stays on one side of the blade in order to loosen the shoulders.
Yesterday she carried 5 different kinds of balls at the same time and did many agility exercises, lots of shots and scoring and passing. We are going 5 days in a row before I go to Santa Rosa to play in a tournament.

St. Louis Team Play
Ray Bennet, long time assistant coach of St. Louis gave a seminar presentation on their team play principles.
The forecheck is almost identical to the Tsunami except the D doesn't stay in on the cycle as you would in 'Total Hockey'. They want to possess the puck as much as possible. They were great this year and could have one it all had their goalie played well.
Skill Videos
I have posted a lot of skill videos lately that don't have diagrams yet. Many are from a pro skills camp and others from Europe.

I spent a lot of this spring posting videos of drills and games that I haven't done diagrams for as yet. There is a lot of pro material and video from when I was coaching in Austria along with other ideas.
The PDF at the end of the posting has links that take you to the video.

Key Points:
Offense should attack with speed and force the D to make a decision by making the first play near the blue line. This allows for a second play. D should delay the attack as much as possible and defend the most dangerous player allowing a bad angle shot, deny shots from the middle and puck crossing the mid-line.
Description:
1.F's line up at diagonal blue lines and D's at opposite diagonal blue lines.
2. D1 pass up the boards to F1.
3. F1 skate to the middle and pass to F2 who crosses behind as D1 closes the gap.
4. F1-F2 attack 2-1 vs. D1.
5. Coach mirror the play from the high slot. (A player could also do this)
6. D2 pass to F3 and F4 skate back and cross to attack D2 the other way.
7. Finish the attack with a goal, frozen puck or D pass to the coach.
8. Players watch to see which attack is finished and start the 2-1 in that direction.
* D and goalie make it a 2 on 2 and allow the goalie to be square to the puck.
* After a shot the D takes the stick of the player at the far post and goalie play the rebound.
* Attacker should pass on the forehand if he is on the off wing or shoot is the D lets you walk in.
* This is a great drill and it could be random with 1-2 or 3 F attacking and 1 or 2 defending. The players would have to read the play and communicate.

I was just at a seminar in Vancouver with lots of pro coaches giving great talks about how their teams play various situations. Section thirteen has many ideas on how to practice these situations on the ice, so I decided a table of contents divided by topics is a good way for coaches to access the drills and 10 best lists. If coaches like this then I will take the time to do it for the other drill sections and make it a thread.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drill Section Thirteen - Table of Contents
This is a table of contents for Drill Section Thirteen. There are a lot of pro drills and pro team play drills, 10+ best lists as well as drills I used this past season with my U15 boy’s team along with Wally Kozak who has coached with Dave King on the National Team and works with their women’s program. Where the link says forum in it then it takes you to the forum posting with the description, diagram and video link. Mediagallery takes you to the video link only.

In the pdf. below the are live links that take you to the posting.
Hockey Associations or Sports Clubs Donate and Receive a Hockey Coaching 32 GB USB Drive
This offer is directed at hockey associations or clubs. You could post the pdf.s and videos on a website that the coaches could access to help them plan practice. It represents at least two thousand hours of time that I spent preparing the material. The association can add their own drills, games and team play ideas.
I am offering to send coaches a 32 GB USB Drive with the diagrams, pdf's of drills, and video of 1500 drills and games for $500 Canadian ($400 USA or 350 Euros).
If you want me to send you a drive use the donation icon at the top right of the site and send a donation via Paypal. (You have to set up a Paypal account)
All the material is on this site but the drive makes it very easy to access the drills and games. You can also make practice plans by copy and pasting the descriptions and diagrams from the pdf.s onto the TCWhiteboard Template. I will attach an example below.
Another method is online banking and send to tommolloy@hotmail.com with the information on where to send the USB.
On the USB are folders with these titles.
ABC Drill and Game PDF's (about 1000 with diagrams, description and video links)
ABC of International Hockey Book 1
ABC Video (1500 Clips)
Drill of the Week
Hockey Diagrams
I have reorganized all the pdf. and video files into these sub-folders.
A - Skating and Ind. Skills
B - Partner and Team Skills 1-0 to 5-0
C - Game Situation Drills 1-1 to 5-5
D - Games Full Ice and SAG
DT - Transition Games
F - Fitness Skating
G - Goaltending
O - Off-ice Fitness and Skills
T - Coaching Technique
T1-2 - Offensive Skill
T2 - Team Offense
T2-4 - Team Offense and Defense
T3 - Individual Defensive Skills
T4 - Team Defensive Skills
The beauty of it is that you can bring up anything you want by typing in the search on your file manager. i.e. Pro - you get all drills by pro teams in that folder or if you type it at the drive title i.e. F drive you get all the files showing pro teams. If you want just female material type U18 F, or the CW F, If you want Jr. drills U20. There are about 1500 drills and games so if you don't like 1400 of them you still have 100 new ideas for next season.
Great way to add to your own coaching data base and as I post new material you can copy the files into the appropriate folder.
If you order before the end of the summer I will include a lot of coaching material that is not on the site!!!!
