Box Tag is a fun game that naturally brings out edgework, and deceptive skills from the players as they try to evade being tagged.
Setup
- Create a space that the players must stay in, this can be a face-off circle, or a box (as shown in the video)
- On the whistle, one player works to tag the players inside the space. The last remaining player wins.
Coaching Points
- Encourage players to use deception, weight shifts, and tight turns to evade being tagged.
Variations
- Can set this up in different areas of the ice.
- Can make the space larger so players can get up to faster speeds.
- Can have more than one person tagging.
