3/26/2019 - Spring Practice Plan

Time	Drill
5 Min	Active Stretching
5 Min	Game Recap A couple of things I was incorrect about Scoring 2nd half my tone at the end of the game Didn't prepare the team for high pressure defense Need the teams help with paying attention and self checking eachother when we misbehave Sunday nights will be for fun, lets use practice to get better The game 2 penalties resulted in 2 goals, we need to control ground balls Will be taking stats on ground balls, the more ground balls you get the more you play
10 Min	Ground Ball 3 Forms Drill Partner kids up with a ball and do the following phases of GB's Phase 1: Drop their stick, one kid rolls the ball to the other and the person does a standing ground ball with both hands (jogging towards the ball) Phase 2: One hand grabbing the throat of the stick, roll the ball to the other kid, switch hands Phase 3: Standing 2 hand scoop, roll the ball and scoop it, both butts down and place foot next to the ball
10 Min	Duke Transition Drill Duke Transistion Drill Works on quickly moving the ball quickly after the GB Put two goalies in the cage Two goals 40 yards apart, place 2 cones on the side line 10 yards apart Have two groups of kids and decide if you want to play 2v2, 3v3, 4v4 Kids line up on the center cones, intermingling themselves Coach rolls the ball and they release to fight for the ground ball, the next players line up and get ready Whoever gets the ground ball, is on offense and they push in transition trying to score, if ball is shot or dropped the drill is over The game continues and keeps score until time runs out or the score is reached Rules: 1. Get GB = Play Offense (Emphasis on Ground balls) 2. Dropped ball - Rep Over (take care of the ball) 3. "D" can play "O" if intercept a pass, picks it up right away, goalie makes a save Alternative: You can have both teams play Offense but put a 20 second reps Alternative: You can add skills, like faking or on ball picks etc Alternative: The losing team has some sort of punishment like running
