3 on 2 Jailbreak
The 3 on 2 Jailbreak from Alex Tanguay helps players practice puck support and give & go's by being able to use their support player in the corner of their offensive end.
Setup
- Setup a cross-ice game with two nets and two goalies.
- 2 v 2 in the zone and each team has a support player that is in the corner of the zone.
- Coach and extra players on the blue line.
- To start the game, coach dumps the puck in the zone anywhere that they would like. Both teams play 2 v 2 and are allowed to use their support players whenever they want.
- Coaches should keep score and make sure to rotate the support players!
Coaching Points
- Offensive players practice puck support and give & go's.
- Defensive team keep sticks on the ice to block passing lanes and work to keep players to the outside of the ice.
Variations
- Can place the support players in different areas (in the corners, the blue line, or behind the net like Gretzky 2 v 2).
- Can give the support areas big or small areas to move.
