1 v 1 Drill

Pittsburgh

Forwards at opposite bluelines and defenseman in the middle

• On the whistle all four lines move- Forward accelerating around the far tire or cone with the puck and defenseman around the outside of the neutral zone circle.

• Forwards will attack the net on the side they started, defensemen will do a complete circle and defend against the opposite forward.

• Great drill for improving your foot speed and acceleration both forward and backwards (for Ds).

• 1v1 skills - change of pace, dekes and maneuvers etc for forwards.
