Coach Rox Fundamentals: Hockey Position

Hockey Position is the ultimate foundation for a player. It not only allows for a player to skate faster, stronger and more efficiently, but it also allows for better stick control, ice awareness, and readiness to make a play.

The hardest part about Hockey Position is that a player should nearly always be in it. That is very tiring and taxing on the legs, but the leg strength will be built over time. It is the best habit that you can develop as a young player - always be in hockey postion.
