DT400 – Low Battles – Breakout and Pass to Playes behind Red Line 1-1 to 3-3 – College W

Key Points:
Transition happens when the defending team passes to their team mate at the red line. The players must go from offense to defense when the puck is turned over and can defend inside the blue line.

The College W example is an adaptation of the Perry Pearn rotation when the game is only at one end. I sometimes move the line up back to the far blue line and the defenders can be active when the puck crosses the red line.

Description:
1. Players line up behind the blueline in teams.

2. Offensive team attack from the red line.

3. The team tries to score.

4. The defending team must break out over the blue line then pass to their player behind the red line..

5. Continue this flow.
