Passing Warmup

Stay above the puck. Don’t give them space.

The Spider

Leafs hunt and trap.

Top down PK like Waterloo

Wrap and chilli dip

Move to space. The most important lesson is to work to make sure that when your teammate looks up that you are the first option they see. Call for the puck.
