Jason Lammers explains The Andy Murray drill. This drill is a continuous 2 on 1 identity drill that is full ice and practices transition, rush attack and tracking.

Setup

• Full ice setup with both goalies in net.
• Line up players along the boards in the neutral zone. 
• On the whistle, a 2 v 1 begins.
• After the 2 v 1 players pass the neutral zone, two new defensive forwards jump into the zone and provide support to the defensemen who is trying to break the puck out to them.
• A new defenseman steps out and once the breakout starts, it is 2 v 1 the other way down.
• The original forward backcheck the 2 v 1 until the blue line, red line, or far blue line (depending on what the coach wants).
• The drill is continuous.

Coaching Points

• Backcheckers should track back through the middle of the ice with their sticks on the ice.
• Offensive players on the 2 v 1 should support each other.
• Defenseman playing the 2 v 1 should keep their stick on the ice to block passing lanes and keep a good gap.

Variations

• Can be modified to be 2 v 1, or 3 v 2.
• Coaches can have baccheckers track to near blue line, center ice, or far blue line.
