Keymaster[i]This is a great progression for teaching the fundamental skills of hockey.
I think the most important feature of these postings is the 'Scope and Sequence' that is used. Most of the hockey material that is produced jumps all over the place without a starting place and no teaching progression or sequence of material that are taught. The Swedes have done a great job of identifying what needs to be learned by an aspiring hockey player and put the material into a great progression. I have added some examples from Pro teams, Finland and Russia with players from those teams demonstrating.
The material goes up to 3 on 3. A coach can take this scope and sequence and add their favorite drills and games to enhance the learning process.
Links to YouTube video of the drills is posted at the end.
———————————————————————————————————————-S – Skill – Technique Practice Ideas
Most of this skill technique material is from the Swedish Federation with clips from other countries. I have added some other material that compliments the technique and put English text to describe the technique and add comments on principles they omit. At the end of some topics are pdf.s with many more drill ideas from around the world.
These videos are also in WMV format at: https://t.co/gc9Jc04a21

KeymasterA – Triple Threat Position – Cut to the Forehand – Sw
Key Points:
Carry the puck on the forehand side of the body without handling it. This gives a triple threat of option.
1 – carry the puck.
2 – pass the puck.
3 – shoot the puck.Description:
This is a very strong position for the puck carrier to be in because it allows all of the options and the offensive player has a 270 degree view of the ice to base his/her decisions on.
This is the MOST IMPORTANT puck handling skill to teach because all of the moves, dekes, shots, and passes can start from this position. So 'less is more' and 'lock and load' when you get the puck.In this video the player holds the puck at the side, fakes outside and cuts inside pushing the puck to the forehand.

KeymasterA500 – Tight Turn 8's – Sw
Key Points:Tight turn with knees bent and inside leg in front. On the forehand turn do as the goalie in the video and keep the top hand at the side and elbow back. Don’t cross your hands as you cannot shoot or pass right away (new thought being taught now).
Description:
1. Carry a puck while doing these tasks and alternate turns with a partner.
2. Do two figure eights starting to the right with turns about 8 m. apart – switch.
3. Do two figure eights starting to the left – switch.
4. Repeat facing forward all of the time.
5. Repeat using a heel to heel turn (Crosby, Selanne)
6. Repeat skating backward. Also carry only on the forehand, then only backhand.
*Avoid using pylons as repeating in the same spot ruins the ice. Players can figure out how to do a number 8 as they all go to school. There are enough lines and dots on the ice to use as guidelines without the pylons (after players are 100 lbs. or 45 kg.)https://www.hockeycoachingabcs.com/videos/watch/a500-tight-turn-8s-sweden-7/
