This is the classic dodge ball game played on the ice using tennis balls (or foam pucks if available). Without knowing it the players will emulate the shooting and passing motion over and over while having fun. They will also need to use awareness, agility, and edges. You can add a lot of variations into the game as well at the direction of the coach.
General Rules
- When a player is hit they are out of the game
- If a player catches a ball shot from the other team then the player that shot the ball is out and one of their teammates can re-join the game.
- Trying to knock down a ball with your stick above your shoulders is automatic out (high sticking).
