T2-4 – Sequence for Practicing Team Play
This is my new favourite sequence to practice team play using a drill and then three transition games that create almost every situation in hockey in all three zones. The first drill has been around for a long time. I liked the way the American League coaches had the new 1-1 go to the red line before turning back. This allowed the original 1-1 F and D to get up into the play. This could be done as a 2-1, 2-2 as well or even a 1-2 which is seldom worked on.
The transition games create 1-1, 2-1, 2-2, 3-2, 3-3, 4-4, 5-5 situations and if you attacked with less numbers like a 1-2 more situations would be created. I still have to do the diagram for the first two transition games.
