Body Contact Corner protection - reverse hit

By: 4Check Hockey

In this drill we are working on reverse hits. When we do a reverse hit there are a few things to keep in mind:

1. Keep your head up
2. Stop using two feet
3. Stop a little bit away from the boards instead of right on the boards

The drill works as follows:

• Place pucks in the corner
• The player starts on the goal line
• On “go” the player goes to the corner to retrieve the puck
• The coach will move the dummy towards the loose puck
• The player delivers a reverse hit on the dummy and possesses the puck
• The player then makes a pass out to the player in the high slot
