2 Pass encourages players to make passes to a moving target. Have players pass to where the intended target is going.
Description
Coach draws lines on the ice to designate starting point for the players and places 2 cones at the top of the drill area.
Players line up in the corners on either side of the net.
The first players skate and the player with the puck passes to the far side.
Players then cross above the cones.
After crossing the player with the puck passes back to the first player and they shoot on net.
Once the drill is complete players switch original lines and the next partners may go.
Key Points
Ensure players use proper passing technique:
- Using heel of stick
- Push and pull with hands
- Follow through with bottom hand
Encourage the players to receive the puck on the goal side of their body.
Do drill in both directions.
