Up Narrow, Wide Back Passing


Up Narrow, Wide Back Passing diagram 1

Description

Players line up on opposite sides of the crease. On the whistle players skate up ice staying close together and passing the puck the entire way. When they reach the far hash marks, they peel to their respective corners and come back along the boards, continuing to pass the puck back and forth.

Key Points

Head Up Passing Through Traffic Passing

Notes

On their way back, players must keep their heads up and get the puck through "traffic" from other groups going up the middle. Make sure players are careful if they miss a puck and go to retrieve it.
