Calling for the Puck
Calling For the Puck
Young hockey players – mites, squirts, and bantams – need to learn to effectively communicate with each other on the ice. This passing drill forces young players to acknowledge their teammates by name in order to receive a pass.
This video is one of over fifty great hockey drills in our training series, Coaching Youth Hockey.
This looks really great and something coaches can easily use for drills with the younger kids. Your video segments were perfect… quick and to the point.
