How To Play Hockey

Hi, my name is Kevin, I've been playing hockey since the last fifteen years and I play for East London Hockey Club. I am going to talk to you about how play the game of hockey. When the ball is coming towards and you are looking to receive the ball, you want to be adopt in your double V-grip down the back of the stick, you want to have quite a nice base of support, nice wide base ideally at the front onto your ball at your feet.

You want to get your stick out in front of you so that you are in a strong position as the ball comes towards you, you're then in a position where you can stop the ball with good security. You can now move it to the left or out to the right with ease. Okay, when you pit up the ball, then you can move in either direction to the left or out to the right and when carrying the ball, you can just keep the ball out in front of you, keeping nice and low so that you can see the game in front of you and see what is happening out to the both sides.

When looking to make a pass, you will still want your double V-grip with the ball out in front of you, pit your person to pass to and then push the ball forward out towards the person you are aiming towards. If you are looking to pick out a longer pass, to pass the ball along a longer distance your going to need to change your grip from being along the back to along the pointed front edge, from that, if you bring your hand up, you could then take a step forward as you swing back and then actually swing through. You will have a good position and power to knock the ball through.

So if I show you again, start with your hands down the back, come across the pointed edge, step forward and swing the ball all the way through. And that is just few tips on how you play hockey. .
