Theme Practices

As a beginner coach I tryed to put every aspect of game of ice hockey in to a single practice session. I think there was pretty little of learning in those practices. Now with some spesific focus or theme my practices make sense to me and to players.

A practice with passing theme could go like this:

1. warm up game of x number of passes gives 1 point
– forehand
– backhand
2. skill drill
-stationary passing forehand, backhand
3. SAG with passing theme
4. some competition with passing theme.
