Hockey Session (Senior): Pass and Move

Pass and Move (15 mins)

Essence :

Used to hone technical passing and recieving skills while performing at full speed.

Structure:

Player A starts the drill by passing to Player B. Player B then passes across to Player C. As this pass is made, Player A will lead off to A1 to receive the ball from Player C.

Player A at Position A1 will receive the ball on the move, get feet around to give an openside, square pass to Player B arriving to Position B1. Player B will dummy the reception and allow the ball to run across their body before carrying to top circle for a shot. Player A, after passing at position A1 will attack Position A2 looking for a deflection.

The drill continues with new Player A passing the ball to Player C first (This will flip the drill).

Pointers:

Explain and ensure that the technical skills in receiving and passing the ball are not lost due to high heart rate and tiredness.

Ensure that the players focus on timing their movements so that the drill accerlates from the first pass.

Variations :

Different technical skill (Hit, Sweep, Flick).

3D receptions.

Different distance to run or pass.
