Race: one lap around the circle, pivot at every cone. Then race to the puck. First one there shoots.

Watch

One lap, pivot at every cone. First to the puck shoots.
Pivot: open your hips toward the middle of the circle, keep your feet moving, eyes up.
Backwards: stay low with your shoulders square, push with crossunders.
After the last pivot, turn forwards fast and sprint to the puck.
Get there second? Keep skating and backcheck the shooter.

Same setup as the Crossover Circles Race: a line on each neutral-zone faceoff dot near the blue line. Put 3 cones on each circle, spread evenly. The coach puts ONE puck in the middle of the ice, halfway between the tops of the circles and the blue line.
Race! Skate into the zone and go forwards to cone 1. Pivot to backwards.
Backwards to cone 2. Pivot to forwards.
Forwards to cone 3. Pivot to backwards.
Backwards to finish the lap, then turn forwards and race to the puck.
First one to the puck picks it up and shoots.
Both racers go to the back of their line. The coach drops a new puck and the next pair goes.
