Developing Moves & Fakes In The Offensive Zone – Keith McAdams …

Power Thoughts:

“We all have ability. The difference is how we use it.”

–Stevie Wonder

Four "T’s" of Passing:

Black Sea Cup: Erzurum Gençlikspor & Georgia 

• Technique
• Type
• Think & Execute Off Puck 
• Timing

The Four T’s of Passing are key to developing fundamental sound players. 

The best players maintain good technique at all times. Good technique must be emphasized on every pass. 

• Cup, Push, Point

The passer must choose the right type of pass. The player must choose when to use touch passes, first and second touch skating and passing. Players must choose when to make short or long pass. Players must choose when to pass to stick, space or use no space play. Players need to know when to use the boards to make a pass or clear.


Types of Passes

• Forehand
• Backhand
• 1 touch, 2 touch, 3 touch
• 1 time
• Saucer
• Snap
• Slap
• Use of boards

Each player must be “thinking off the puck” and working on being in position to receive a pass. Players need to work on things like:  Am I calling for the puck when open? Can I see the puck? Am I in the best place for a pass? How can I give my teammate an option? Can I create space for others? The best players are always thinking and executing “OFF the Puck”.

The 4th “T” is for timing. Both the player with the puck and without the puck need to work on timing skills. Timing is everything in hockey. Arrive a little to fast, a little to slow and the play results in a turnover. The player with the puck must choose the right pace of the pass. Pass to hard it arrives to fast. Pass to slow, it behind the receiver or the puck is intercepted.

• Control Skate, Communicate & Accelerate

Coaches must work on the “Four T’s” if they want to improve their team play. When players master the three T’s, puck handling, passing, scoring and tactics will all improve.

Coaching Ice Hockey Using Digital Video Technology

Digital video technology allows the coach to breakdown and analyzes the team & player’s performance. Digital technology can revolutionize the way every youth coaches can prepare their teams and players. Digital Cameras and application are affordable for most coaches. Video allows you to analyze performance and let you see things you couldn’t see during the games & practices. Videos can be used to teach skills, systems, tactics and breakdown the game. Every coach should video games and some practices. We video tape all the practice during training camp. We then video practices two times a month for each age group. We use videos to evaluate individuals and teams performance. We use the videos to teach skills and take work segments. These work segments do not lie! Videos shows us where we are improving. Videos allow us to fine tune our focus and improve our weaknesses in future practices.

• What you see is what you get
• You improve on what you focus on

Video Technology allows you to provide accurate feedback to your players. We use Facebook to give players instant feedback on their performance. We post videos daily to aid in the teaching process. We use videos to highlight good plays and motivate the players. If used right, video technology can be used to facilitate mental training and psychological skills necessary to win. Equipment Needed:

• Editing software 
• Quality digital camera 
• Good laptop or desktop computer

The simplest way to breakdown game videos is a followed:

Four Things Youth Hockey Coaches Can Do To Improve Their Coaching Abilities For 2012-13 Season:

Power Questions:
Do you have a coaching syllabus?

Every coach should have a coaching syllabus. For youth hockey I recommend you break it down into four areas.  Every skill, system and tactic you will teach should be in the syllabus. Your syllabus must be detailed. Your syllabus should be re-worked  and improved each year.

1. Skill syllabus
2. Defensive syllabus
3. Offensive syllabus
4. Special team syllabus

Your Coaching Syllabus Should Change Time to Time:

• Players change, so your syllabus could need to be changed
• Opponent change year to year
• Players progress quickly
• Player progress slowly
• Some things work, something do not

My syllabus includes the following: 


System: Is the plan


Tactics: Is how you execute the plan

Principle: A rule used to choose among solutions to a problem which works most of the time.


Goals: Each practice, drills and concept must have measurable objectives


Reads: What players should see


Skills: List of skills and progressions


Keys: Smaller details


Rules: Things that Happen a lot


Roles: Responsibilities of Each player


Terms: “Good Vision Leads to Good Decisions”

“I try to do the right thing at the right time.  They may

just be little things, but usually they make the difference

between winning and losing.”

    -Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

ERZURUM GENÇLİK SPOR KULUBÜ 14U Team Wins National Championship Turkey!

Eleven Ways To Improve Your Practices & Team:

ERZURUM GENÇLİK SPOR 2011-12 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

This is a copy of my philosophy on practice planning for my 14 and under club. My program is based on 11 ingredients:

1. Structure, Structure, Structure:

A successful practice has to be well planned and organized, following a clear set of objectives from start to finish.

• Dynamic Stretching & Warm Up Off-Ice  
• Properly warming up the muscles and ligaments of the body is essential for avoiding injury
• Proper cool down after practice

2. Simple Warm-up On-Ice Stressing 1 or 2 Passing Drills: 

• Effective warm-ups allow the players to become mentally and physically focused to begin the practice
• Spend a few minutes stretching center ice – If you have the ice time available.

 3. Fundamentals & Defense: 

• We work fundamentals and defense daily
• We take pride in the fact our players are equipped with the basics in puck handling, passing, shooting, rebounding, and defensive fundamentals 

4) Game Preparation: 

• Keep things simple and progress 
• The key is executing the system and tactics being used
• Always be working on understanding how to read & react both on defense and offense

 5. Predictable & Variety:  

• Practice can become easily boring with the same drills 
• I keep my schedule and practice format predictable, but continually introduce new progressions and drills to my practice
• I stay with drills until they master them 
• If I sense things are becoming to boring I change the format 

6. Competition: 

• Encourage an atmosphere of hard competition too simulate a game-like level of play
• One of the best ways to create competition is to add back and forward pressure
• Keep score at practice of the things you are focusing on

7. Accountability: 

• Considering rewarding hard play (I.e. Hustling for loose pucks, winning battles on the boards and getting rebounds.)
• Hold your players accountable for their performance
• Provide continuous positive feedback, and punishing poor play

 8. Winning & Improving Is Fun: 

Don’t take yourself too seriously. Make sure your players are having fun or they’ll lose their drive and focus for training.

9. We focus on drill that stress the following: 

• Multiple touches & reps
• Multiple groups
• Multiple skill drills

10.  Utilize Small Area Ice Drill:

The younger the group, the more time I would spend on small ice drills.

• Small area drills give you more touches & reps
• Isolate one or more skills

11. End With Small Games

Work on basic game principles including; Pressure, Possession, Defense,  Passing, Movement, Shooting & Rebounding! Set the game up to target an area of your performance.

• Design small side to sided games
• Diagonal half-ice games 

Power Thoughts:

“Repetition of the same thought or physical action develops into a habit which, repeated frequently enough, becomes an automatic reflex.”
                                                                                                -Norman Vincent Peale
