Partner work
Two participants stand on two lines about 5 metres apart. One participant calls out an addition with two-digit numbers (e.g. "34 plus 23") and then runs to their opponent to score a hit. If he scores before the attacked player can complete the task, he receives one point. The defender receives a point if he states the result before he is hit. In the next round, the roles are swapped. Who has scored a certain number of points first or has scored more points after a certain time?
Variant:
Only shoulder and torso hits are counted.
Participant:
1 pair of boxing gloves
Ice hockey: big circles
Stimulate circulation
Group work
3 players per group
The players form three large circles around the face-off points in the three zones (offensive, neutral and defensive zones).
the whole pitch
Ice hockey: small circles
Stimulate circulation
Group work
The players run round the five circles on the playing field.
forwards
backwards
keeping your gaze fixed on the centre at all times (switching from running forwards to running backwards)
The whole pitch
Ice hockey: skating the lines
Increase pulse
Group work
The players run from line to line, stopping briefly each time they change direction (do not run in circles). When stopping, they must always keep their eyes on the centre of the pitch. The exercise is carried out twice (once on each side of the pitch).
The whole pitch
Ice hockey: fits
Stimulate circulation
Partner work
Two players stand facing each other (vis-à-vis) a few metres apart. Player A passes the first puck to Player B. Player B receives the puck and sets it slightly to one side. Player A passes the second puck to Player B, who plays it straight back. Player A now receives this puck, moves it slightly to one side, and then plays the next pass straight back. The exercise continues in this way without interruption. After a while, switch from the forehand to the backhand side, or incorporate flip passes.
2 pucks per group
Ice hockey: fits
Stimulate circulation
Group work
4–5 players per group
X1 plays to X2
X2 plays back to X1
X1 plays back to X2 and moves counterclockwise after passing (1/4 circle)
X2 plays to X3 (position taken by X1) and also moves counterclockwise after passing (1/4 circle)
X3 plays to X1
X1 plays to X2 and moves counterclockwise again after the feed (1/4 circle); assumes the starting position of X2 accordingly
X2 plays to X3 and joins the waiting group (1/4 circle shift)
X3 and X1 restart the exercise
After a few passes change direction (rotate clockwise).
Later, the starting player can independently decide in which direction to start.
1 centre circle per group
Ice hockey: fits (3 v 1 / 4 v 1)
Stimulate circulation
Group work
Groups of 4 (3:1) or groups of 5 (4:1)
Three (or four) players position themselves around the face-off circle and attempt to keep possession of the puck through quick and precise passing amongst themselves. A defender attempts to intercept or win the puck. After losing possession of the puck (e.g. a misplaced pass, fumbling the puck whilst receiving it, or a pass intercepted by a defender), the player who lost the puck swaps roles with the defender.
1 centre circle per group
Ice hockey: passing and finishing (horseshoe)
Forms of play / exercises
Carry out the drill on both sides, each targeting one goal (X8/X7/X6 analogous to X1/X4/X5), or start the drill on one side, finishing with a shot at one goal, and switch the starting side after a while (passers positioned at the top, spread across both centre circles).
X1 moves a few metres, then passes X4, X1 continues past X4, going round it
X4 passes X5, X1 moves between X4 and X5
X5 passes X1, X1 completes the manoeuvre
Variant:
Assign fixed players to positions X4/X5 and substitute players from time to time, or rotate two players at a time between positions X4/X5 (X1→X5→X4→group)

Move your elbows forwards while standing
Power
Individual work
A distinction is made between the left-handed and right-handed stance. Right-handers take the left stance (left foot in front), while left-handers take the right stance (right foot in front). The left-hand stance: The left foot is placed one step forwards from a parallel stance approximately shoulder-width apart so that the right hand is behind. The right hand corresponds to the striking hand, the left hand to the leading hand. The distance between the two feet is approximately one shoulder width, with the feet on a diagonal to each other. The front foot stands on the entire sole, the heel of the back foot is raised. Both feet point forwards and the weight is evenly distributed over both legs. The front shoulder is turned slightly inwards. The whole body is slightly crouched, the knees are slightly bent and soft. The striking hand is placed in front of the chin and rests against the body. The lead hand is in front at eye level. The fists point outwards with the back. The arms are in front of the body and the elbows point downwards so that the arms cover the body.
Alternate between bringing one elbow forwards at eye level (pointing forwards/upper arm in the direction of your gaze) and turning your upper body with it.
Attention:
Always hold your arms up (chin or eye level).
Lighten:
Lower your elbows forward (chest height).
Harden:
Hold additional weight on your arms or in your hands.

Power
Individual work
Stand upright, feet hip-width apart. Place your hands loosely at your temples or behind your head (elbows pointing to the side). Tense your stomach slightly, shoulders loose. Raise one leg from this position. At the same time, rotate the upper body so that the elbow is crossed towards the knee. Roll the upper body in slightly, the movement comes from the abdomen. Then lower your leg and roll up your upper body and return to the starting position. Switch sides after each repetition. Exhale when your elbows and knees come together and inhale when you return to the starting position.

Variant:
Instead of calm music, an information CD (teaching exercise: e.g. training methodology) is played, whereby the basic idea of relaxation is somewhat lost.
Per participant:
1 soft mat
Music (quiet)
Relaxation
Relaxation
Individual work
To generate heat, the palms of the hands are rubbed together quickly. Then place the warmed palms over the closed eyes. The pleasant warmth should relax the eye muscles. Alternatively, the thumb and index finger of one hand can be placed on each eye to massage them gently using circular movements.

First steps
Coordination exercises
Individual work
Once you have mastered the basic position, you can try your first steps. It is important to feel the strap with the forefoot before putting the whole foot down. This means you don't have to look at the strap to know where it is. Before you remove the back foot from the strap, you should place it on your toes to shift your centre of gravity to the front foot.
Easier:
Stretch the slackline tightly over a short distance (3-5m); help a partner by holding their hand (always go with the balancing movement and only stabilise when the slackliner is almost falling).
Harder:
Walk backwards; stretch the slackline over a long distance.
