2-Man Pass Drill
Drill: Two lines at the goal line extended about 20 yards apart. First players in each line run down the field as
a pair passing the ball back and forth, running full speed.
Purpose: Stickwork, conditioning, and passing and catching on the run. ALL GRADES!
Emphasize: Leading- throwing the pass out in front of the catcher. Running full speed.
Tips: Keep sticks to the outside. Player on right has stick in right hand, player on left, stick in left. Players
switch lines coming back down the other side of field –they will now be on the opposite side and will use the
other hand. Keep the players going around the field for two or three laps. They should not stop running.
Encourage them to use their weak hand no matter how uncomfortable it is!!
Simple instruction: "Run full speed" "don't stop to make the pass. Throw on the run."
THIS IS A GREAT DRILL. IT SHOULD BE USED ALMOST EVERY PRACTICE!
