A good hockey training, without the planning

Ask “Plan a 60-minute hockey training for beginners” and Ask Takoro builds one: a warm-up, three skill activities, a game and a wrap-up, picked for your team’s age group and adding up to exactly 60 minutes.

Junior hockey starts with safe stick work and keeping the ball close. Build control first, then passing, then a small game where the skills get used.

The example below shows the shape of a beginner training. In the app, the activities come from Takoro’s hockey coaching library, with set-up, coaching points and easier or harder versions for each one.
