Explain the structure of lessons in this program:
The way these lessons will run will start with a warm up activity, and
then you will Listen, Do, and at the end discuss what you have
learnt
Lesson 1: Dribble
Warm up activity:
Walk on the netball court lines
Jump, skip, walk on your tippy toes, walk low
Introduce: dribbling- ask has anyone played hockey before? Anyone
know how to dribble?
How to Hold Stick
Left hand at top of handle
Right hand bottom of handle
How to position body
Knees bent, back straight and head up (you will get sore backs if
you do not bend your knees!)
Safety-Keep stick below waist at all times. It is really important that
people play safe and if I see anyone who isnt being safe, or isnt listening
to my instruction they will sit out.
Open stick dribble
Set up: Lay 6 cones in pairs 5-7m apart (divide class into groups
of 4)
1 ball with each set
Split class up into 6 even groups
One at a time dribble out round the cone and back
Run forward keeping ball out in front with the stick in contact
with the ball at all times
IT IS NOT A RACE!
Activity: Space Dribble
Every player needs a ball and a stick and should move around
the player area with their stick.
Their ball should always be in contact with the stick
Encourage players to try and find space as they dribble
They can go anywhere- they cant bump into each other
o Head up!

Moving passes
In pairs, get students to dribble to ball in a circle with their friend
walking opposite them and then slide pass it to them, and so
forth
Change directions
If struggling, they can stand still
Conclusion: (ask class)
What was our main objective in this lesson?
Is it easy passing? Was it easier when you were walking in the
circle?
How do you look when you hit the ball?
Extension activity: Stuck in the mud
Aim: Moving the ball, spaceial awareness with the ball
Get two or three Mud Monsters (catchers) with bibs
The rest of the class needs a stick and a ball and dribble
All the children MUST WALK
The mud monsters will go round and touch the other children
making those children Stuck
The stuck child will stop, put their foot on the ball to stop it
rolling, open their legs wide, and put their stick on their head.
To release a stuck player another player needs to pass the ball
through the stuck players legs
Lesson 3: Learn how to pass the ball whilst travelling up the field and to
shoot with accuracy
Warm up activity:
Trucks and trailers
Shooting circle
Organise class into groups of 5 and have them in a semi-circle
with a stick and a ball
Mark out a goal at the end and have them each shoot for goal
and then take a step out once they get 3

As both teams will be going at the same time, its important that
you DO NOT bump into the other team
When your team is done, all sit down
The bootlace
6 cones pet set (4 sets)
Lay cones out in a zigzag layout in front of a goal
Each cone needs to have a person standing by it
Pass the ball along the line, after each person has made their
pass, they need to go to the next cone (follow the pass)
When the ball reaches the last cone the person should have a
shot at goal
After shooting return to the back of queue
Shoot out

steal the bacon and then get the ball over the line where their
opponents started
Change speed, change direction
Set up 4 obstacles using 4 cones
Students are to weave in and out and shoot the ball back to their
team mates
Conclusion: (ask class)
What was our main objective in this lesson?
What have we learnt so far?
o Dribble
o Passing the ball left and right whilst travelling
o Moving the ball up the field
o Shooting
o How to tackle, intercept and defend the ball
Lesson 7: To understand the game, positions and discuss the qualities of a
good team member

In the classroom, talk about the hockey field and positions:
Draw the field on the white board refer to work sheet

Variations:
1. Could use different colored cups and tell students at which color to aim.
2. Could use different colored cups for each team to aim at.
3. Could divide class into small groups of 4-6. Have 2-3 students stand on
each side of several cups. Play the game the same way.
4. Could do same game using partners instead of groups.
Adaptations for Students with Disabilities:
Students with disabilities can use shorter sticks or larger balls to make it
easier for them to hit the ball with the stick.
