Planning a Floor Hockey Season There will be many different skills to teach players during the course of a season. A season-long training plan will help coaches present skills in a systematic and effective way. The sessions in the plan below are organized in a twice-a-week format. Make time at each practice to work individually with your goalkeepers for 10-15 minutes. If you do not have an assistant coach, you may have to do this before or after the practice session.   Basic Practice Athletes put equipment on Warm-ups Drill 1 Water break Drill 2/scrimmage Cool-downs Athletes put equipment away Preseason Week #1 Athlete/parent meeting   Drill 1: Use the Individual Skills contest to assess your athletes   Drill 2/scrimmage: Finish Individual Skills contest assessment Week #2 Drill 1: Passing and Receiving   Drill 2/scrimmage: Dodge Puck Competition Season Week #3 Drill 1: Stick Checking and Face-offs   Drill 2/scrimmage: Two on Two Drill Week #4 Drill 1: Red Light, Green Light & Steal the Bacon   Drill 2/scrimmage: Shoot Around the Goal Week #5 Drill 1: Assess athletes:  play a mini game, playing all athletes   Drill 2/scrimmage: Using assessment, repeat a previous practice drill to reinforce a skill team needs to work on Week #6 Drill 1: Screening Drill   Drill 2/scrimmage: Give and Go Drill Week #7 Drill 1: Triangle Drill   Drill 2/scrimmage: Play a full game Week #8 Drill 1: Four Corner Drill   Drill 2/scrimmage: Play a full game
