Tips to Improve Your Two Touch Shot

1. Get Hands Out In Front Of Your Body: get your hands out in front of your body. This will allow you to control your first touch and generate power on your second touch (your shot). 
2. Get Your Shot Off As Quick As Possible: the quicker you can get your shot off, the more likely the goalie will have trouble with it since they will be moving. 
3. Good Body Position: a player shouldn't be leaning too far forward or too far back. A good hockey position before you receive the pass will help you release the puck quickly.
4. Drive Shoulders To Net: Drive your shoulders to the net to generate more power and accuracy.

The quicker a player can get a shot off, the more opportunities they will have to score goals! If you would like to view pro players performing this skill, make sure to check out our skill breakdowns below:
