Back to Practice Plans

Time Drill
5 Min Active Stretching
  • Great parts of the weekend:
    • Clears: Diagonal passing, butter killed them.
    • Rides: we locked off their middies, our attack was vicious, transitioned to 3-3, middies subbing were perfect, killed their butter
    • Seal picks with fast dodgers led to lots of goals
  • Points of improvements:
    • Defense clearing needs to get the stick in their weak hand or face dodge to the weak side
    • Sliding needs to lead with stick follow with body
    • Need the whole team to get their hands on the sticks of the guy passing or shooting
    • Thunder look to the box to pass the ball, as many teams will double on subs
10 Min 8 Lines Stickwork

  • 4 Min in the air

10 Min Irish Channel
  • Drill teaches the defense to put your hands on a guy and drive him away
  • Create a rectangle about 30 yards long and 5 yards wide
  • Put a cone at the end of the 30 yards
  • 1 v 1 drill, offensive player does not have a ball
  • Defense works on vholds, drop step, pushing the hips
  • Defensive guy starts 5 yards to stop
  • If offensive guy is pushed out, he reenters the drill from the same place
  • Offensive guy must touch the cone at the end



10 Min Team Defense
  • Pinch scheme, get on hands with pokes or lifts on the pass
  • Drill: Offense moves the ball, defense pressures and pinches, look to lift check


Rules of Sliding - when you initiate a slide it needs to be done with the proper technique

  • Slide to where he's going, not to where he's been - anticipate the path of the driving attackman
  • Breakdown on arrival - be ready to play solid defense - knees bent, back straight, balls of feet
  • Stay in front of the Attacker - the on-ball defender is forcing the player down the side of the field, stay in front of the ball carrier
  • Slide man stays on the ball - Once a defender initiates a slide, he must go, and once there he is now responsible for that man, the original defender recovers to the crease
  • Original ball defender recovers to the crease to pickup open man - if the slide is effective in making the attacker peel away the original on ball defender should recover to the crease
  • Lead with the stick, follow with the body - After leading with the stick, you’ll follow through with your body lowering the shoulder to make contact.
5 Min 53 Pick and Roll and Slip Shooting
  • two guys, one guy runs a 53, the other clears through and slips or sets pick and roll, 53 guy hits the guy but must look.
10 Min Blocker Pad Ground Ball

  • Parent lightly bumps them under pressure
5 Min 2 man game at x with 2 cutters
  • Get two attack behind X, one dodges the other picks
