This is a good game to use for controlled scrimmage. The defending player must pass to the coach at the point to transition to offense. The coach can stop the play and have the players freeze on the spot so he can point out offensive or defensive positioning or coverage. In a 2 on 2 situation you have all 4 game playing roles. On offense 1-player with the puck 2 – player supporting the puck. On defense you have 3 – player checking the puck carrier 4 – player covering players away from the puck. Because you start each shift with a dump in you also have the 3rd game situation of a loose puck situation.
