• Variation #2B (7 min):  "3 Vs. 3."  Start with 2 offensive players at the crease (low) and shooter (high) positions respectively, with the 3rd offensive player starting in the shooter position on the opposite side.  Match up 3 other players in their respective defensive positions.  

• Coaches should allow the offensive players 15-20 seconds max to get a shot off, also allowing them to continue to play if there’s a “re-set” from a shot.  The weak-side shooter is now able to back-door cut and/or go one-on-one to the net, if the opportunity presents itself.  If the goalie makes a save or there is a rebound, the defensive players should try to successfully clear the zone with the ball.  

• For rotating through the drill, players who started the drill at the crease position (defense & offense) are out of the drill, and players who started at the shooter position (defense & offense) are now at the crease position on the strong-side; with two new defenders/offenders entering the drill at the shooter position (on both sides).  Switch which side is the weak-side as needed, based on the total numbers of lefty's & righty's.

• Offenders/defenders should switch between being on defense or being on offense each time through the drill (unless playing the Offense-Defense transition system).
