Download or read book THE HOCKEY METHOD written by BOB DE LA SALLE and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expectations are too high for beginners in hockey. Beginners are simply not ready for team play and systems. What is missing is a transition phase from the first time a player puts on a pair of skates to that first hockey game. The Hockey Method is a methodology to fill in this missing link or gap in hockey development. It identifies skill levels that can be grading to track player proficiency. The Hockey Method consists of two parts; Book 1 - Beginner Skating and Book 2 - Beginner Puck Control. These two parts present 31 skill concepts that are so simple and easy to learn that you don't need to be a coach to teach them. What is really needed, for first timers, is one-on-one direction and instruction. Coaches or parents can do it but parents are a better choice to instruct beginners because they have the time and vested interest to dedicate the 1 on 1 instruction needed by beginners at this early age. The basic idea is to build confidence by learning to walk before you run, run before you glide, and to be able to turn the toes in and out before you are able to use edges.

Download or read book Swedish Hockey Drills for Kids written by Jukka Aro and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hockey drills are available in large quantities, but usually for the slightly older hockey players, but how do the younger players get a good start to their hockey careers? In this category, hockey drills for the younger ones or hockey drills for kids or children, there are not as many suggestions for basic, but developing hockey drills. At the same time, it is also often here that, many hockey coaches start their coaching path and educate themselves during the journey. There it may be good and often necessary with a little help with hockey drills for the early hockey practice, which you will go directly to from work. Putting an exact age on for whom the hockey drills in the book are suitable for, is not possible because it is related to the level of competence. What you can say is that the hockey drills in the book are suitable for the youngest 5-6 years and up and that some 10-13-year old would definitely benefit from doing several of the drills, to develop as hockey players now and later. The emphasis in the hockey drills is on skating, and even though we are talking about the younger hockey players, there are match-like elements built into many of the practices in a basic format. There are also many simpler competition elements in the drills, because that is what it will ultimately be about in the matches, to compete on the ice, first to the puck as a first basic element. Two other important elements covered by the hockey drills are the first steps towards an interaction in the form of movement and passes and of course what we strive for with each attack, to shoot to score a goal!
