8. REVERSE STICK PASSING

After dribbling the ball for 10m, the player must push it through a wide goal (1-1.5m). A goal scored with the ball being stationary when the push is taken is not valid. After the push pass the player returns to his starting point and waits 5m behind the second goal to receive the ball passed by the second player who has done the same as the first player.

The winner is the first player to score five goals with the ball on the move. The distances may be altered depending on the performance level of the player involved. It's recommended to use a mini-hockey ball with a weight of approximately 100 g

Training objectives

To assure accuracy when passing with the reverse stick

Don't lift the curve before the impact of the stick with the ball. This could lead to an inaccurate pass and besides gives the opponent information about the moment and direction of your pass.
