Quick Fix: Stopping

https://vimeo.com/948032314?share=copy

One of the more difficult fundamentals for young players to get comfortable with is the hockey stop. A major problem area is that players like to try and stay on their inside edges the entire time which actually creates more of a turn.

Here are a few things to try:

have players stand still with feet in neutral position and just swivel the hips and feet back and forth.
when adding movement have players go very slow and speed up as they become more comfortable.
keep the feet in a neutral position right under the shoulders.
turn the head, shoulders, and feet while staying in the neutral position.
