With a little luck, this will be our last 6 am of the season! We'll start off with a gentle passing warm-up to get the blood flowing followed by a quick drill to work crossovers, passing and 1 v 0 shooting.
As promised, the rest of the practice will be games - the first one is a 3 v 2 game to work the defence on clearing the puck and covering the front of the net, and the forwards to get the puck to the net. The next game will be Backcheck Shootout.
The last game will be players' choice (vote).
We'll work some stationary shooting in as in-betweens. I'm sure it will be the right combination of intensity and fun to keep the Titans moving after that excellent game last Sunday.
See you at the rink

The theme of this practice is communication. Communication is very important to effective passing and puck support - players need to communicate with each other to know when a teammate is open or not, and where and when to pass. Communication is also essential for filling E-Tanks - teammates need to support each other and let them know when they're doing well, and give them a boost if they're feeling low.
During this practice we'll work on communication during play, especially for passing and we'll emphasize communication for filling E-Tanks.
The practice plan can be found here:
https://kgha.goalline.ca/data/132/files/t411668/practice_plan_02_15_14.pdf
We'll be reviewing the following drills from last week:
2F 1D Breakout;
Pairs Passing Transition to 1 v1.
We'll also do a passing drill/game and introduce a couple of new games:
Sweep the Porch;
End-zone 3 v2
and we'll finish with some fun SAGs, maybe even a race!
I'm looking forward to it.
See you at the rink.

The practice is designed to give a lot of puck time to players while doing mainly individual and small group tactical drills and providing our goalie a chance for many shots, in game-like situations - 1 v 1; break-aways; and 3 v2 in the end-zone. Time permitting, we'll finish with a little fun game of some kind.
Two links enclosed - The Vortex - a potential warm-up drill; and the practice plan, which I've figured out how to get two pages in one .pdf document.
See you at the rink.

Today is Hockey Day in Canada! This practice is about puckhandling, passing and competitive fun. We need to kick up the intensity a notch, Titans. Practice is a perfect place to hone our skills and sharpen our competitive edge.
After a combined warm-up with PW3 we're going play Passing for Points, do some station work on angling and driving the net and finish with a SAG. If there's any time left, I'm sure we can find a good relay race to do. In-betweens will be Partner Stick Checks.
Only one sheet today -

The focus of this practice will be passing (offensive and defensive) and shooting. We'll start with a combined warm-up and drill with PW1 followed by a new game - Passing for Points. Then, we'll do some station work - Cloverleaf - for agility, passing and shooting; 1 F 1 D Breakout - for defensive passing, similar to last week; and some shooting practice - flip shot.
We'll end with a low organization game (LOG) such as a race.
Don't forget the three questions for homework:
1. How would the team benefit from having captains?
2. What duties should captains/alternate captains have?
3. What qualities and skills should captains/alternates have?
The plans are here:

This will be a shared practice. The theme is skills review - shooting, passing, and 1 v. 1 with ample time for some fun games at the end.
The first drill is just a full-ice warm-up to get going. The emphasis is 'Look-Move-Look-Pass.' Players skating through the middle need to keep their heads up for traffic (players and pucks)
Next, we'll do some stations to review skills - passing, one-timer shots and 1 v. 1 puck battles.

The theme of this practice is tactics - offensive and defensive. First we will warm up by working on our crossovers - forward, backward and open and reverse pivots (moving from forward to backward skating and vice versa). After that, it's tactics in stations - about five minutes each: Breaking out of the zone with one defence and one forward; attacking 2 v. 0; improving our angling and a tight area 2 v. 1 game to work on passing in tight areas and defensive tactics.
We'll finish up with 3v.3 Circle Shoot - The Titans did a really good job with this last week and it showed in the game. Time permitting, a relay race.
Make sure that you do an off-ice warm-up (

This practice will continue on the angling and checking skills that we have been working on the last couple of practices, as well as work on passing in small areas. We'll start with a drill that we've done before - Wild Walkover - with PW4. After that, we'll work in 5-minute blocks doing stations - the first two stations are gap control and stick checks. The final two stations will practice puck retrieval with a shot on goal and passing and puck protection. We'll finish with a 3 on 3 small area game and some fun at the end.
