DAILY ON-ICE AND OFF-ICE TRAINING

STEP 1 – STICK CHECKING

Although body checks are more entertaining, stick checks are used more often throughout a game and are just as effective as a big impactful body check. The goal of a good stick check is for the defensive player to separate the puck from the offensive players stick. There are four main stick checks that are used in the game of hockey; poke check, sweep check, lift check and a press check.

STEP 2– ANGLING and Positioning Angling can be considered the first line of defense for a player. It’s the ability to force your opponent to go in the direction that you want. It also puts a player’s body in a safer position to accept an impact with the boards.

STEP 3 – BODY CONTACT and BODY CHECKING

The goal in the body contact stage is to work on a player’s ability to receive impact from another player in a safe way. In a body contact situation, you want to be in the correct position. Players should have knees slightly bent, feet are slightly wider than their shoulders, and their stick should be on the ice forming a triangle base. This position will allow players to withstand the impact of a collision and remain in a good position to continue the play.

A body check can be defined as the physical force of a player separating another player from the puck through a body check. It is critical that the check is only delivered to the trunk (hips to shoulders) of the other player. Additionally, the intent must be to separate the player from the puck,
