https://www.hoganlax.com/3v1-3v2-shooting

  • Drill is useful for teaching midfield to shoot under pressure
  • Starts as a 3v1 and can be changed to 3v2 to make the midfield read the field

Setup

  • Have a goalie, 1 line of defense to the side at GLE, 1 line of attack in the back, 2 lines of midfield up at midline
  • Balls start at x, the attack makes a cut around the crease with the defense in front of the goal in ready position
  • The attack picks a middie to pass to, defense slides and applies pressure (the attack is out of the play and so is the other middie) its just 1v1
  • Next, change it to 3v2, its the same setup except 2 defense and when the attack makes a pass the midfield work together. The first middie to receive the pass must read the defense and either shoot or pass.

20 Min '4 Man Ground Ball into a 3v3

This drill was invented by Paul Myers. The goal of the drill is to reward the player who wins the ground ball with the opportunity to play offense. Defensively, this drill helps players drop back to the hole quickly and to find a man to cover.

  • Put a goalie in the net
  • Have 4 lines of guys at equal distance around the box (one line in each corner)
  • Have 2 additional lines of guys, one on each side of the box, in between the 4 guys fighting for the ball
  • The coach rolls the ball out, the 4 lines battle for the ground ball. The winner of the ground ball must break out, protecting the stick and the 3 guys that lose are now on defense
  • Upon possession, 1 guy from each of the middle lines runs out, and is on offense with the winner of the ground ball and the drill transitions into a 3v3
