Flow With Adventure 1on1

"Flow with Adventure Transition" is a high tempo passing and transition drill that is a progression to "Flow with Adventure". Players are split into four groups. On the whistle, the first player from each line skates towards the neutral zone. Lines #1 and #3 carry a puck and make a direct pass to the players from Lines #2 and #4 coming from the opposite direction. The players that drop the puck on the cross and drop become immediate defenders and play the one on one rush from both ends. Allow the battles to continue for ten seconds and on the whistle the battles end and the next four players begin. Coaches be patient as players learn the routes and responsibilities.


Teaching Points

Passing and Regroups: Accelerate on the re-group. Set the puck early in the cross and drop so the receiver can adjust to the puck position. Defending; Gap as quickly as possible to eliminate time and space. Never quit on a loose puck and play it out until the whistle.
