  • 5 cones positioned around the net, top near the box
  • Player should pop-out or pop towards the ball to mimic getting open
  • Move the ball around the net, catch on the outside, turn, switch hands and pass on the outside
  • Move your feet to get ready to receive the ball
  • Run to the line you pass to
  • Quicker we move the ball the tougher the defense can recover
  • Receive the pass, one or two craddles, then make accurate pass
  • Variation: Use a long pole as a limbo GB, coach places ball, player drops their ball


6:15 to 6:20 Water
6:20 to 6:25 Talk about Picks
  • How to set it, stick up and down close to body
  • Off ball and on ball picks
  • Pick and Roll
  • Backup the pass
6:25 to 6:50 2 Man Game Drill
  • Divide your team into two color groups, have two lines 10 feet above the box line. Put a goalie in the net.
  • 4 total players come out, 2 from each line, 1 group is offense the other is defense. Players rotate within their own group
  • The play starts when one guy passes to the next
  • Try to get on different planes before setting the pick a low guy should be at a 45 degree angle
  • Guy with the ball goes down low and wide, passes to the other guy in the middle, goes and sets pick
  • The goal of the drill is to have the two offensive players set picks and rolls for each other
  • Player receiving the ball stutters before the pick runs off the pick and towards the goal, looking at the slip man
  • Guy setting the pick (slip man) turns into the shooter and mirrors him
  • Run with the shooter shooting, and then run passing to the slip man in the pick and roll
  • Variation: Work on a pass down pick down
  • Variation: Slip man can replace the guy driving or can set a re-pick
  • Defense: Work on talking, calling out picks (left or right), forcing a man to one side of the field, and calling switches
