Trimble’s Drill of the Week – Tire Game

Trimble’s Drill of the Week – Tire Game

Game is great at 3 on 3 but can also be done 2v2 or 4v4. Purpose of the game is to develop Movement away from the puck. Finding space and getting open.

  • Two lines divide each team out of the zone, with 3 sets of tires inside the zone (No Goalies)
  • Whistle and loose puck to start as the teams compete to win possession of the puck.
  • Team with the puck has to have players without the puck move and get open, as the only way to score points is to connect on passes between the tires.
  • If you lose possession of the puck, your team will be on defense, and have to cover players (man on man) in order to win possession of the puck back.
  • Rule 1- you can not immediately pass to the same team in the same set of tires.
  • Rule 2- Sprint out of the zone when the whistle blows and a new group comes on.
  • Great game for developing defensive awareness, spatial awareness, passing and communication skills and much more.
  • Make it accountable and play to a certain number.
