Watch this video clip and remember, if you want to score more goals you'll have to pass more. For the goalies, if you want less goals you'll have to cover-up the puck more often. If you can't cover-up then tell your defense to send the puck to the boards and out of harms way. Finally, you'll see an Interference/Holding penalty which happens often in non-contact hockey. Defense your much better off playing the puck than intefering with the forward. Thanks to the DDO Peewee BB Pirates for being in...

Here's a Bonus Tip for coming to the website. I always let the first strike go by, I very rarely swing before one strike goes by. That motivates me and allows me to see the pitchers speed. Now I used to hit second, so I was hoping to move the first hitter over one base all the time. Create the dicipline to take strikes, and the pitcher has to throw three of them, you'll get many balls, and even walks before you'll get 3 strikes (Talk to your coach about this first). Hitting for Hitters seems to ...

If your a forward you can have the element of surprise if you go ahead and use your defense. Make sure you have a proper passing lane to the tape on the defenseman's stick, and make eye contact to be sure the defenseman is ready for your pass. Then keep the puck on the ice and give the defenseman a quick pass. The defenseman can often sneek in deeper into the zone and fire. If your a winger in your defensive zone, you want to get there before the puck does or before the shot get s fired. Enjoy t...
