10 Min	Face Off Wing Mechanics Face Off Wing Positions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHRiNriAlP0 If their wing guys are on their side of the field, lineup our wing guys on the inside of the man hip to hip on their side of the field On our face off guy, butt end side, box out then sprint at angle back to get the rack On our face off guy, stick head side, box out and hope to get a ground ball If their face off guy is winning get our stick head guy to move to our defensive side of the field If we are losing run to the top of the box
10 Min	Face Off into a 4v4 or 5v4 The goal with this drill is to get a lot of reps from faceoffs and wing play Make this drill competitive and keep score Divide your kids equally into different colors, with attack, middies, and defense spread across both teams Move your goals in for a shorter field and put 2 goalies in cage Have 1 defense man and 1 attack man at each end of the field Have 3 midfielders from each team at the midfield line Do a faceoff whoever gains position takes the ball down and tries to score, if they don't score the opposite team has one chance to clear it. If after the clear there is no goal, then we re-face off A variation is to add two attack per team so after the faceoff it turns into a 5v4 instead of 4v4
5 Min	Water
10 Min	Jog around field and then sprints, no helmets
