I've been playing hockey for a long time, but I broke my leg six months ago. I figured it would be a nice, relaxing reintroduction to play in a recreational coed league with one of my best friends, who happens to be relatively new at hockey.
I'm in a new situation - I need to become a much better coach and teammate! Plays that are automatic for me are foreign to my teammates who don't have a lot of experience - things like drop passes, give and go plays, and the like.
What are some simple ways that I can help this team improve? We don't get practice time, so it is basically five minutes before the game and during the game in which I can coach them.
Knowing this, what advice can you give me to help both myself and my teammates? Tell everyone, when we don't have the puck, to pick a man and stay on them? It's tough because a lot of the time, people are either floating on defense or cherry-picking on offense.
Thanks!
