Name: Cameron Rivest Date: January 30, 2017 Time: 8:53-10:19 A.M.
Equipment: 20 Floor Hockey Sticks, 20 Floor Hockey Balls, 2 Floor Hockey Nets, 16 Dome-
shaped cones
Special Considerations:
This is my first lesson with these students, so I need to make sure they respect
me and I respect them.
When I observed this class there were a lot of students on their phones, so I will
need to address that there will be no phones during my lesson.
Beware of your surroundings. Floor hockey is a dangerous sport and anything
can happen at any time, so caution and safety will be key.
Look out for the nets at either end of the gymnasium because there are heavy
and wont budge easily if you run into them.

LESSON ORGANIZATION

the 3-point line to work on handling the
ball in tight areas with multiple
opponents around them.
33-35 Transition: *Whistle is blown. Students will Tt
move back to the halfcourt line and will have 20 S S

Useful when there are defenders
around you

51-57 Transition: 2 students can move nets onto the
middle of the baseline while the rest will meet
near one of the nets
Refining: Defense
Low, athletic stance so the
offensive player cant get around you
Shuffle side to side, dont cross
your feet
Keep stick close to your body so
you dont trip the offensive player
When the hockey ball is close
enough to you that you feel you can
reach it, move your stick at the ball and
poke check the ball
When someone is about to
shoot, place your hockey stick in
between the hockey ball and the net and
that will give you your best chance to
block the shot
Refining: Shooting
Turn your body, so the shoulder
of your top hand of the stick is pointing
towards the goal
Have the hockey ball near the
heel of the blade of your stick. (the part
of the stick that is curved upwards
pointing towards your hands.
Sweep your arms across your
body
Pull in towards your body with
your top hand, push out with your
bottom hand
Snap your wrists when you
follow through so the ball travels in the
57-64 path you were intending C CC C
Follow through below your waist O O O O
*Follow through at your waist = ball will go D D
towards the top part of the net O O O O
*Follow through at your shins and the ball will C CC C
go towards the middle height of the net
*Follow through on the ground or at your feet
and the ball will stay on, or close to the ground. Tt
Extension:
65-77 One offensive player will switch C N C
to defense, so now it is 3v2 inside the T1 T1 T2 T2
square T1 T2
If the defense gains controls T1 T1 T2 T2
whichever defender has been in longest

Transition: Groups will be asked to pick up the T3 T3 T4 T4
cones making up their square and give them to C N C
the teacher and meet the teacher at halfcourt.
Activity 4: Gameplay
Students will stay in the groups
they were just in for keep away. The 2
teams that were on the same side for
keep away will stay on that side and
play against each other. Same thing
with the 2 teams on the other side of the
court.
First possession will be decided
by one game of Rock, Paper, Scissors
between one person from each team.
There is only half a court for
each game, so if the ball changes
possession, the ball must be brought
back past the 3-point line just like in half
77-78 court basketball.
Games to 3 or whichever team
is winning after 3 minutes.
One team from each side will
78-84 switch courts after Game 1, so you play Tt
a new team. S S
Extension: S S
If the games are going by S S
quickly, the nets will be turned so the SSSSSS
bottom is now the part you have to
score on.
The width is still the same, but
the height of the goal is much lower.
