Coaching points
- Keep your feet moving the whole way. Crossovers on the curves.
- Head up crossing centre ice: the other line is coming the other way.
- Curl tight around the outside of the circle with the puck on your forehand.
- Cut to the net with speed and shoot to score. Follow it for a rebound.
- Start without pucks if the group is new to it.
How it runs
- Setup: a line with pucks in two opposite corners and a goalie in each net.
- Carry the puck up the wall to the blue line.
- Swing up through centre ice and back down to the far blue line.
- Curl around the outside of the far faceoff circle.
- Cut to the net and shoot.
- Join the line in the corner at that end. Both corners go at the same time; the next player goes when the one ahead reaches centre.
