A200 – Puck Handling Warm-up – C U17
Key Points:
Loosen the shoulders and use big moves. Keep the hands away from the body. Make hard fakes. Puck handle quietly. Use this flow to practice many more moves and fakes.
Key Points:
1. Zig-zag down the ice and keep the puck only on the forehand of the blade. Add doing this with the puck only on the backhand.
2. Fake a shot by dropping the shoulder as if you were shooting, do this on the forehand and backhand.
3. Fake a backhand pass and pull the puck across.
4. Handle two pucks with one on the backhand and the other on the forehand.
5. Handle three pucks at once.

This was a skills camp with both boy's and girl's run spring 2016. The girl's were all 98 born and played for my U18 AAA team that won the Provincial Silver a few months before. They are all playing in the Usport this season. It was a coach development week and they used these players to practice running an effective 'hockey practice'. I will post some more of the drills they used.
