The Hockey Drill Book presents a comprehensive selection of 200 drills in eight different chapters which cover the fundamentals of: Skating Conditioning Stickhandling Goal Tending Passing Checking Shooting Game Situations There is a diagram, a purpose, and a description for each drill along with tempo, variation, and number of participants. |
Hockey Drill Book. The title says it all. The book is laid out very well. It opens with warm up and skating drills. Then the book moves to stick handling to passing to shooting. It continues with conditioning, goaltending, checking, situations and finishes with practice.
The nice part about the book is that each drill has an illustration with a description of how to perform it. Each drill also contains an explanation of the purpose, tempo and who can participate. Another nice feature is the variations section, which offers an idea of a different approach to the drill.
This is a great book for beginning coaches as well as more seasoned coaches looking for something different. This book will help your confidence as a coach and help your team move to the next level. |
