What are some good road hockey drills that will help my ice hockey skills ?
My elite team coach has us do agility ladder drills: -Run straight forward through the ladder focusing on quick feet -Lateral run- don’t cross your feet as you go through -Crossover run down the ladder -Run out- run through the ladder and then sprint out 20 yards -high knee skips through the ladder -quick skips through the ladder – 2 foot hops focus on foot contact in each hole -2 foot side hops (hop sideways through the ladder) -single foot hops forward -single foot hops sideways -slalom through the ladder Jump rope is also a great way to build endurance and quick feet which are a necessaryy skill for hockey as for stick handling, USA hockey has a great website, i run through these drills everyday and they have improved my game tremendously. I bought a smart hockey ball at my local rink, its weighted to simulate a pucks bounce, speed,and feel ect. http://www.usahockey.com/Templ
