This is a fun way to start or end practice for the mite / novice age levels. It makes sense to do this in a practice where you will be using borders because it requires 6 - 8 borders depending on how many players are involved.
How the race is run
Divide the players up into teams along the goal line so you have 3 - 4 players per team. Each team will have a border out in front of them. The first player will skate and do a superman dive onto the barrier and slide as far as they can. When they come to a stop they get back on their fee and skate back to line. Once they cross the goal line the next player in line can go. This repeats until they get the barrier across the goal line at the other end. The first team to do so wins.
