Today I will teach you how to pass in field hockey. I played field hockey all four years of high school and I was captain my junior and senior years. By the end of this speech you will know how to perform the four different passes in field hockey. Transition: (Let’s begin with the easiest pass) The push pass is used for short distance passing. …show more content…
Place your hands in a basic grip where your right hand is halfway down the stick, and your left hand is at the top of the stick. You should be perpendicular to your target with the ball on the right side of your body lined up with your back foot Bend your knees and get low Perform the pass. With the ball on the stick, shift your weight from your back to your front foot which should be pointed at the target. Push the ball forward and across the body. Rotate hips to increase power. After the ball is released, point the tip of the stick at the target and don’t let it go higher than your waist. Transition: (Now that you can pass short distances, let’s talk about the slap shot) The slap shot is a fast pass that can be used for long passes or shots on goal. As with the push pass, you must begin with a basic, correct stance. Place your hands in the basic grip. With the left foot pointed at the target, line up the ball with the inside of the front foot. Bend your knees. Perform the pass. Take a small back swing. Shift your weight from the back to the front foot. Again, rotate your hips for power. Make a fast slap at the ball as the stick crosses the body. End with your body and stick facing the
Lacrosse was once a sport played with as many as 100,000 players on in the valley at the same time. It has now decreased to ten players for men and twelve for women’s lacrosse. The positions are attackers, midfielders, and defenders. My group’s primary focus is the midfielder. The midfielder can be considered the center piece of the team. While playing both offense and defense the midfielder displays that he has to be in the better shape than his teammates. He also has a key role in the most important part of the game “Transitioning” (2). That stage requires a lot of clearing the ball and saving a lot of loose balls which is why the midfielder needs to be explosive and in shape.
Shooting is a fundamental part of the game lacrosse. It’s important to learn the different styles, techniques, and tactics of shooting to improve your game. Positioning your body is important. Make sure your elbows are facing the goal when you shoot the ball. If you are throwing with your right hand, use proper shooting technique and step with your left foot first. If you're a lefty, than step with your right foot. Position your hands in a way that feels strong. You should have one hand on the very bottom and the other a few inches above. Choose a spot that fits the feel that you want. Make sure you feel strong about the position. It will help you make the perfect shot. When you aim to shoot, look at your target. You should see all the four corners of the net and away from the goalkeeper. If you've noticed that the goalie has a weaker side, shoot for that side of the net. This will most likely give you a better chance at scoring. Once you step and aim, follow through. A strong follow through is what will add the speed and power you will need.
The movement pattern of a soccer kick is a proximal to distal motion of the lower leg. Hip activation occurs to begin movement of the thigh through multiple planes. There is a backswing and a forward acceleration by the thigh, shank, and knee extensor. Where the ball ends up (accuracy), and how fast it moves (speed), depends mostly on foot to ball contact (Kellis & Katis, 2007).
This report is going to be on the game Ice hockey. A game of hockey is divided into three twenty minute time periods that are called periods. Between each period there is a fifth teen minute intermission. In hockey there are several ways a game may end if there is a tie at the end of regulation. The pros use one twenty sudden death period in which the first to score is the winner. In the amateurs they use a shoot out in which five players from each team are selected and allowed to go one on one with the opposing goalie and which ever team scores the most goals after all five members for both teams have taken their shot they are the winners. If there is a tie after this it keeps repeating until a winner is crowned.
Soccer is a game that is played a lot on angles and measurements. Most wouldn’t think that angles come into play when playing soccer, they just kick it into the goal wherever they can. To make a good, precise shot, you must take into account where you are in relation to the goal, and decide what angle would be the best to aim and kick for. Where the kicker is standing in correlation to the goal plays a major factor on the difficulty of the shot. Also, if the kicker is a left or right footed kicker and what side of the goal they are on also plays an important factor...
Position the puck properly. The most important part of this shot is the positioning of the puck. Make sure the puck is located close to your front foot.
Before beginning to play hockey you must know the rules of the game. A hockey
When you think of hockey, you would think of people getting in fights or skating. To even play hockey you need to skate well enough to protect yourself from other people. Theses skates are 2.9 mm or 0.115 inches thick, skating is more tiring than running and they require different muscles. You have to be tough enough to take hits, block shots, or someone hitting you with a hockey stick. The puck you play with is 1 in thick and 3 inches in diameter. You have to hit the puck with a hockey stick, the blade is 12.5
Youth Hockey Growth in the United States is the main focus of this research. The sport of hockey has been around for nearly 200 years. The game was produced from a form of stick and ball games started by immigrants. These immigrants were British soldiers who brought their type of hockey to Canada. Paintings from the 1830’s depict the sport of ice-hockey taking off in Canada.(Garth, Vaughan) As the sport grew so did the age groups in which it was played. Many sports start their growth from the elders down to the youth. The same can be said for ice-hockey. Many gentlemen started to play the sport as a way to pass the time. This is when the children began to take a liking to the sport. Fathers began to teach their children the fundamentals and from there, the rest is history.
William Faulkner brings all aspects of the game to life by going beyond the game itself, and immersing the readers into the intricate details that are often overlooked by most spectators. While spectators and televised sports commentators focus on the literal game itself, the points and teams, Faulkner describes the “kaleidoscopic whirl” of motion, the grace of the players and the designs they carve into the ice. He goes beyond the typical description of skates and hockey sticks, depicting them as “knife blades of skates” and “deft sticks which could break bones.” Faulkner, through this fluid and detail oriented writing, portrays the game of hockey in a way most people fail to see.
When most people hear the word hockey, they think about skating, ice, and a puck. What most people do not think about is running, the blistering heat, and a small orange ball, however, I do. That is because I play dek hockey, not ice, meaning that we run, and our season is never over. Playing hockey is my favorite thing to do, and I have so many fond memories. Some of those memories are, playing hockey at Bill’s Golfland, U.S.A. Ball Hockey Tryouts, and playing at Penn Hills Dek Hockey.
First, you must have the correct form. To shoot, you must remember that you use one hand not two. The second hand is there to guide the ball to make sure you shoot it straight. So, you will put your dominate hand under the bottom of the basketball and your other hand, the guide hand, on the side of the ball. From there, you must rest the ball on the tips of your fingers so the basketball is not touching the palm of your hand. Lastly,
First of all, you must take control of the ball and decide what to do with it. You only have two options. You either carry the ball on your own trying to score for your team or you pass the ball and move to get back the ball. Second of all, you need to use the inside of your foot to be more accurate. With you knowing what part of your foot use, choose the person you are passing the ball to. To choose who are you passing the ball to, make sure your teammate is open, that there are none of the opposite players near your teammate, and that your team will make a smart play to score. If an opposing player is near, there is an immense probability for the other team to intercept the ball. Along with that, the other team might score against

Passing is perhaps one of the most important components of the sport. A game would be impossible without the assistance of passing and team work. To successfully carryout a pass, many factors have to be taken into account. In order to begin a pass, first a player must exert a force on the basketball. Once the ball leaves the hands of the player, it becomes a projectile. A projectile is acted upon by two independent forces: the x and y components. The x component is the force exerted on the ball by the player while the y component is pulled by the force of gravity, -9.8m/s². As a result of the independent components, the ball will travel in a downward parabolic path, or trajectory. Since the ball travels a downward path, the player throws the ball towards a target located a little higher than where the player wishes the ball would go in order to compensate for the downward path. Another factor that affects the successfulnes...
