  • Have all the kids line up in two lines on one side of the field
  • One line has a ball, each pair of kids is partnered up
  • Have the kids run down the field, catching and throwing in pairs, making sure they are catching and throwing with their stick in the direction they are running
  • If a player misses the ball, the partner should follow to close the gap for passing

10 Min - 2 Man Game Drill

  • Divide your team into two color groups, have two lines 10 feet above the box line. Put a goalie in the net.
  • 4 total players come out, 2 from each line, 1 group is offense the other is defense. Players rotate within their own group
  • The play starts when one guy passes to the next
  • Try to get on different planes before setting the pick a low guy should be at a 45 degree angle
  • Guy with the ball goes down low and wide, passes to the other guy in the middle, goes and sets pick
  • The goal of the drill is to have the two offensive players set picks and rolls for each other
  • Player receiving the ball stutters before the pick runs off the pick and towards the goal, looking at the slip man
  • Guy setting the pick (slip man) turns into the shooter and mirrors him
  • Run with the shooter shooting, and then run passing to the slip man in the pick and roll
  • Variation: Work on a pass down pick down
  • Variation: Slip man can replace the guy driving or can set a re-pick
  • Defense: Work on talking, calling out picks (left or right), forcing a man to one side of the field, and calling switches
