Red Light Green Light encourages players to practice their stops. Have players use specific feet or edges increase the challenge.

Description

Coach defines the game area with cones, barriers or marking the ice.

Players line up on the goal line.

When the coach says "Go" or "Green Light" players skate towards the far side.

When the coach says "Stop" or "Red Light" players attempt to stop as quickly as possible.

Key Points

Story tell with the younger kids by telling them you are writing them a ticket when they "run and red light" and don't stop

Reinforce good stopping posture and edge control.

Ad difficulty by requesting different feet and edges to be used.
