NAME: 3 Lane Shooting



SET UP: 2 lines in diagonal corners w/pucks. Goalies in nets.



DESCRIPTION: P1 skates the circle, skates down the wall and shoots from near boards. P2 skates the circle, skates 1/2 the center circle and shoots from the center lane. P3 skates the near circle, skates the circle in the opposite corner, performs a tight turn at the blue line then red line and shoots from the far lane. After P3 skates past, the players in the other end start.



DETAILS: Players must keep their feet moving through the turns while carrying the puck. Make sure they shoot from their lane and do not attempt to deke the goalie. Players should also be stressed to stop in front of the net after shooting for rebounds. This is a good drill goalies to work on lateral movements seeing shots from all 3 lanes.



POINTS OF EMPHASIS: Goalies: work on staying square to each shot. Skaters: keep feet moving up until moment of releasing the shot, keep head up
