Simple offensive play for my 12u kids but this is run all the way up to the pro level.

This is a full field clearing drill that works on outlets from Goalies, rollbacks when "pressured" from above, across field redirects, pushing upfield with a guy in front "Headman guy", finding the wing attackman after the clear, and pushing through X. It also helps one Goalie work on long pass clears from behind the goal/GLE to a breaking out player.

Players rotate to the line they threw too (except goalie line).

Players get to work on both hands catching and throwing.

This clear is designed with simplicity in mind. This clear is based on clearing the ball opposite the box with Defensive middies as the primary ball carriers. Attack should be in Fast Break L

Zebra EMO is a man up play with many different options.

Mimics clears with a goalie and 3 defenders that turns into a 3 v 4 once the ball makes it to the midline.

This is a great man up/down build up drill for both offense and defense.

Simulating transition or sliding help defense. Defender has to approach ball carried in a controlled manner to keep them from scoring (push below GLE). Offense has a lane to go to goal but needs to evade the defender to shoot.

This is a drill I've done in previous seasons. It's a good uneven drill.

Learn how to find your man and match up/guard them. Forces a 4v3 and the need to slide. Fun name/activity for young kids but easily adapted to older levels by simply making on ball defender run out of the drill and back.

Whole team stickwork drill, great for early in a practice session. Set-up 5 lines of players. Passes will skip a line. Passer follows their pass. For more intensity, add more balls to the drill.

Simple defensive skill drill working off-ball positioning and on-ball approaches. Bring 4 players, 2 will be on offense, 2 on defense. The 2 offensive players will be 20-yards apart, with a cone or mid-line dividing them. The defensive players will set up on-ball and at the mid-point in an open position to see man and ball. The offensive players will play catch, while the defensive players will alternate with good on-ball approaches and off-ball fills. The defensive players should work on picking passes while working their approach.

Small group groundball recovery drill. Set up as a traditional line drill with two players set in the middle. The middle players will drop the ball for a groundball and apply pressure to the player recovering the groundball.
