Coach's Club Skating Drills



One of the objectives of the Coach's Club is to focus on skill development.

With that in mind we have offered up some video references so you can build a series of drills focusing on specific skills for the young player.

This week we offer up a series of videos to work on turns and crossovers.

First we begin with the all important "C Cut".





Next try alternating the legs

Next add a cross-under to the skill.

With these progressions you can move to the circle and begin working the crossover.

All of these drills can be applied to backwards skating with equally important results.

Give some of these drills a try.  Remember our focus should be on skill development.  A player will enjoy the game more when he has mastered more of the skills.

Look for more drills and videos in the coming weeks.
