PUCK POSITIONING
!
There are three main areas where shooters position the puck while
they are stick handling.
A zone (forehand)
!
The A zone
is a very dangerous goal scoring position. The shooter
positions the puck directly to their side with the stick blade
open facing the
net.
When a shooter is stick handling with the puck in the A zone or forehand
side you must realize a shot can happen in an instant.
B zone (dekeing position)
