Cross Ice Gretzky Game
At the younger levels passing and playing with your head up is always an issue. Put in constraints, such as this game, to improve awareness, passing and give-n- go scenarios. 3 v3 with Player 1 behind the opponents net. That area behind the net is a Safe Zone (no one else can go there), and to score you must pass to Player 1 first before shooting. Easy game to understand at 8U but also fun and high tempo for older levels.
