Fire Cracker Feet

Aug. 19, 2020 at 9:53 a.m. MDT

"Fire Cracker Feet" assists in developing quick feet, agility and balance. Break players into groups of two. On the whistle, the active player executes a step over to the middle and then a second step over of the second stick. The player then repeats this pattern for about 10 seconds. On the whistle, the next player begins and the active player rests. Sticks should only be a couple of feet apart and lay parallel on the ice.


Teaching Points

Skating: Head up posture, soft feet on landing and explosive push for the step over. Maintain deep knees and straight back. Avoid hunching over and looking at the sticks with the head down.
