Forehand Shooting
Utilising the Forehand Shot is vital, and hugely important to your game.
Traditional Hit, (First 2)
Ensure the ball is inline of infront
hitting road the ball, not through (Like cricket)
Hands together
Head Still
Experiment with the drop handle style, for a quicker strike
Wide stance on hit
Be side on, shoulder facing the goal
Don't look up until you have completed the hit
Try to keep the ball down, (when passing)
For the slight lift, experiment with ball position and slight angle change in stick face.
Back Space Shot
Here we're looking to keep the ball away from the defender
Quickly trapping the ball and the working your feet into position
Try to receive the ball in the middle of your body
Jump around the ball
Head Still
Encourage the drop hands
Work hands around the back of the ball
Wide base on the hit
Snap shot for surprise
Try a squeeze (more on this soon)
On the Run, Right Foot Hit
The idea is to hit on the move
Running away from the defender, so you cannot be tackled
Drop handle hit
Try to push the ball away, then prepare quickly
Always try to aim far post, as your weight is falling away from the goal
Get your hands around the back of the ball
Ball in line with right foot
Head still
Try to do it in stride and continue running
Hit clean and think of it as a pass
Good luck and happy shooting guys.
