Two-Line Cross & Shoot

Full IceBeginner1v0Warm-upShooting/Scoring
Objective: Warm up goalies and skaters with crossing entries and shots from both sides. Setup: Two lines at center on opposite walls, pucks with each line. Goalie in the far net. Execution: First player in each line leaves together, carrying wide then crossing at the far blue line. Cross far-side first (no collisions), attack the dots, and shoot in stride. Both shoot on the same net; next pair leaves as the shots are taken. Switch ends halfway. Coaching points: Time the cross — arrive at the blue line together. Attack the dot line after the cross; shoot before the hash marks. Follow the shot for a rebound tap.
