Hockey is one of the most spectacular and popular game sports, which is in demand in many countries of the world. Many young people would like to learn how to play it. Only trained coaches who have an effective methodology for teaching this sport can help in this.
Instructions
Step 1
Develop the general physical potential of the players. There is practically no such kind of playing sports where it would not be necessary to have good endurance and a sufficient supply of strength condition. For hockey, this is relevant for many reasons. Firstly, players spend a lot of time on the ice, so they need strong legs. Secondly, they also often fight for the puck and need to have a strong torso.
Step 2
Schedule a training cycle that includes not only special ice training, but gym, jogging, and swimming. It will be quite enough to develop the general physics of the players 2-3 times a week.
Step 3
Train your wards to skate in any position. This is the most important point that needs to be paid close attention right away. Players can run 7-9 km on ice per match. They must be fluent in skating, both forward and reverse. Plus, it will be a great endurance and leg muscle workout. Get your players to drive for at least 20 minutes on the ice before the main activity.
Step 4
Work on the speed performance of the hockey players. In addition to the development of the respiratory system, it is also important to master fast skating, since all hockey is built on constant acceleration behind the opponent's player or the puck. After the general warm-up, tell the hockey players to each of them do 15-20 accelerations in one and the other side of the ice.
Step 5
Teach athletes to stick and dribble. Next comes the turn of direct work with the shells. Show how to hold the club: one hand is on the top, the other is on the middle of the barrel. Then tell us about the types of punches: clicks and throws. Have each player hit the target with their stick many times. Make sure that the goalkeeper either deflects the flying puck or traps it. He needs to learn to do both perfectly. Spend at least 30 minutes with this component of your workout.
Step 6
Practice the puck and space component on the ice. This step is also very important, as all hockey matches are made up of it. Explain the rules of the struggle and show how to carry it out correctly. Show what the deletion can be assigned for. For example, for playing with a club held high. Make sure that all learned game components are assigned to players in matches.
