Key Points:

Defense stay between attacker and net with a tight gap on the 1-1, attack with speed, use skate and stick fakes. One the 2-1 attack with ‘one high and one low, one fast and one slow’, while the defender delay the play and take away the most dangerous shot and deny play across the middle of the goal.

Description:

A. Defenders line up at each end in diagonal corners and attacker in the other diagonal corners.

It is really important for players to have the basic side to side motion when skating. This is a short video on skating technique that is more than worthwhile to watch.

I just sent this email to Wally Kozak who does a lot of mentoring around the country and a lot of it concerns skating technique.

Hi Wally,

Juhani introduced me to Gaston who was the skating coach in Davos when Juhani coached there. This short video of Gaston with an edges warm up then teaching the stride and the transition front to back Choctaw turn is worth the 12 minutes to watch it.

A2 Forward and Backward Stride and Choctaw Turn (efficient stride and front to back transition turn) - taught by Dr. Gaston Schaeffer (PHD in Body Mechanics) former Olympic skating coach in Switzerland. http://lnkd.in/bPkA9wi Gaston was also the Swiss champion and traveled the world for 5 years as feature skater for Ice Capades and Holiday on Ice.

Take care,
Tom
---------------------------------
Speaking of Wally, he was at our Tuesday practice and suggested we enforce the idea of having 'sticks on the ice, in the lanes and on the puck.' When we played the cross ice games Wally watched and blew the whistle to stop the play and enforced. Everyone does 1 push up and the offending player or players do 5. Wally looked to see if the player realized he was the offender. It was very effective and we will use the same rule to enforce 'face the puck'. Many other habits can be stressed using the 'push up rule.'

Drills that start from the 4 blue stripes on the boards.

Drills from the 4 blue lines are very popular because the middle of the ice is empty and you can do skills, regroups or game situations either full or half ice.


We code the drills starting at the blue line as;

B600 is when the drills run from the 4 blue lines and the players pass and shoot vs. zero opponents.

C600 run from the 4 blue lines and are game situation drills usually 1-1 to 2-2 but they could be up to 3-2.

I have put a pdf. booklet together with about sixty B600 and C600 drills that I have posted so far.

These are Russian drills demonstrated at the conference in St. Petersburg in at the 2011 World Championship coaching conference. If you know the international symbols then they are easily understood.

I also have attached the European Drill Book.

Pro coach Mike Babcock teaching about PP and PK at a coach seminar I attended in Vienna.

This video has been posted for a long time. I have converted it into a format that can be viewed more easily on phones and tablets.

The Arena in Vienna

This is the arena where Juhani Wahlsten and I introduced coaches from Austria to the development program we developed for the Austrian Ice Hockey Association http://www.eishockey.at/aus-und-fortbildung/ (ours is the parts titled ABC). Juhani did the classes in German (one of the seven languages he speaks and I did the on ice in this rink and a practice rink that is attached at the back.) There is meeting room under the seats where we did the classes. We also did off ice in a nearby park. There is glass all around the outside of the rink, which is very common in Europe. One of the nicer rinks.

The Austrian program translated to English can be found as PDF attachments at the bottom of these postings. It is a good scope and sequence for teaching both the skills and the good habits to be a complete hockey player.

Canucks Team Building Activities

Perry Pearn who coached NAIT in the ACAC vs. my SAIT for 4 years before moving on to higher leagues and Willie Desjardins, who I was an asst. for at the U of Calgary for 6 years run both on and off team building games with the Canucks. I saw it on Facebook and put it in my dropbox. It is best to download it so it runs smoothly.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/yxz9vn7rkx737yw/Canucks%20team%20building.3gp?n=355597945

Steve Carlyle (Canada National Team and WHA Oilers) came up to me last week and asked; 'What happened to us?' He was on the staff my first year at the U of Calgary and the other coaches were Willie (Vancouver), Mike Johnston (Pittsburg) and Drew Remenda (was video coach for the Ducks and now is a colour man on NHL TV). We stayed at home instead of traveling around coaching and were both teachers. The next year Steve, Mike and Drew had left and Slava Lener (asst. in Florida and now head of Czech hockey) and Terry Johnson joined the staff. Willie left after the 94 season when we lost to the U of Lethbridge coached by Mike Babcock in the Canada West finals and went on a two year leave to coach in Japan. Tim Bothwell came in as interim coach and they told him to keep Terry and I on because Willie was returning. Willie won the Japanese championship his second season and they offered him so much money that he stayed and coached in Japan for about six years before returning and taking over the Medicine Hat Tigers. Tim took over and we won Canada West and went to the final 4 in Toronto 95 and 96 with the team Willie had recruited, mostly because we went on a three week tour of Scandanavia (in the summer of 93, that I arranged because of Juhani) and that attracted a lot of top major junior players. Terry quit coaching at the U after one season with Tim and I left after two. Tim stayed a few more years and then moved on to be an asst. in Atlanta for a season. 95 and 96 are the last two years the U of C has won Canada West. Willie won in 90, so I was part of the team for 3 of those teams.

So I guess the reason I tell this story is to say that coaching at the university level gives you the opportunity to meet and work with and against some very knowledgeable people and I am grateful that I got the chance to do it.

The most significant thing though was meet Juhani Wahlsten, when he was brought to Calgary to do a coaching course by the then Dean of PE George Kingston. We hit it off because we are both PE teacher/hockey coaches who use 'games to teach the game' and it resulted in me going to Finland and traveling around doing seminars with him and the Russian icon Vladimir Yursinov. This opened opportunities for me to run summer camps in Hamar, Norway, Vierumaki, Finland and Pennsylvania. These led to camps in Jasper, New York, Los Angeles, Norther Michigan, Detroit, Delaware, Guatalajara, Mexico, Seoul, Korea, Boston, Vienna and Salzburg, Austria and I just got an inquiry from Atlantic City. I think I have traveled to Europe twenty times for coaching camps, attending conferences and to give seminars. So hockey has been good to me.

I am enjoying coaching this Bantam team and Wally Kozak is my mentor. He attends a lot of the games and I had him run the last 20 minutes of today's practice.

I made this game up last night by moving the players up to the top of the circle and the rule was that the Jokers at the point must shoot a wrist or snap shot and couldn't pass. The focus was to get the attackers to screen, tip and rebound and the defenders to communicate who covers who, box out, take sticks, seal stick to the outside and battle for rebounds AFTER they tie up the sticks. A good sequence is to start with 1-1, then 2-2 and then 3-3 and have about 20" shifts. I will get a video the next time we do it.
--------------------------------------------------------------

DT400 Low Zone Battles with Jokers at Point - Youth

Key Points:

Attackers must go to the net to screen, for rebounds, tips and cycle low. Defenders must talk and stay man on man unless impossible and then switch. Box out, seal sticks to the outside, tie up sticks in the slot.

Description:

1. The game is played from the top of the circles down.
2. Play from 1-1 to 3-3.
3. Players must pass to the point to go onto offense.
4. Joker at the point must take a wrist or snap shot.

* Keep score and when in the teaching mode stop the play and have player who doesn't cover someone do 5 push-ups and his teammates 1 PU.

Games to Teach the Game.

Given the promotion of the games method of teaching and coaching https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2z7xc44z5utp1zo/AAA70v5_cReTlNHIooPU3rnca?dl=0 promoted in this animated video I wrote my long time international mentor Juhani Wahlsten.


Dear Juuso,

It has been great having Wally Kozak as my mentor. We played against each other for years and he has had a lot of hockey experiences coaching with Dave King, being the head scout for Canada's women's team and working with many national team coaches, etc..

Meeting and working with you since 1985 gave affirmation that how I was teaching PE and coaching by using games was very effective and a lot more enjoyable than standing in line and waiting for your turn to do a simple skill. I and you got a lot of negative push back for having this philosophy but now it is the 'new way' to coach and teach. So maybe all of those years of paddling against the stream were worthwhile.


Take care,
Your friend,
Tom

Practice Using Many Nets, Puck, Balls

We use 4 small nets and 2 regular sized nets in the hockey class I do. They are great as obstacles and goals for SAG's.


I did a camp in Jihlava, Czech Republic and we used 4 nets for the drills and games with youth and U20 players.
