1. Entry

Hockey is often called the sport of space velocities. Puck flying over the area , rush hockey players , the attack succeeds the attack, one or the other goalkeeper parries the strongest throws. And again - go ahead , to assault the opponent's goal . The game is faster , every 40 - 50 seconds replacing . It is difficult to keep track of the puck , and the rates are increasing , and there seems to be a limit to them ..

Enormous speed hockey stars , and yet most incomprehensible in this game - the players speed tactical thinking , the ability to instantly understand the ever-changing situations and take the best and most unexpected opponent decision.

Sharpness and strength - it is not rude, and inalienable , mandatory physical training touches versatile hockey player. rules of the game are fair and the most sobering hotheads . That is why in the farewell match before coach often warns: " Cruelty within the rules "

Thirst for battle, thirst for victory excites, inspires , stimulates and boosts emotional outburst most cold-blooded . And if not passion, not temperamental collision of characters confrontation courage, will and self-esteem , does not seem to hockey without all this little - bit deflating ? Is not he would lose some of its emotional appeal ? But all these skirmishes on the field - no settling of accounts . Hockey players rivals, but not enemies . Respect for the opponent never let hockey player to lead the fight unfair .

 

2 . Birth hockey.

Where and when was born hockey? The exact answer to this question and have probably will not. There is evidence that games resembling hockey existed since ancient times . Assumed that they were born back in Persia, where once there was polo. The ancient Greeks also had a game resembling hockey, which was even included in the Olympic program . It was called " freyninda " In Athens, the famous wall reliefs of Themistocles , which is more than 2400 years shows young people who play that is very similar to modern field hockey.

In a game played in the XVI-XVII centuries in England and France . In the Netherlands, there was a game with a ball on the ice - " bandy ." Even knew such a game in China five and a half centuries ago. Hockey fights and fond of the ancient Indians . Evidence of this are the murals exhibited at the National Museum of Anthropology Mexico City. They depict athletes playing small ball curved sticks. Some sources claim that the birth of hockey due to the extreme north of the lives of Indians of America , who competed on the ice in a game with sticks . Discoverers of the New World called it " aysreket ."

And if recourse to linguists , we can learn that the word " hockey " - French origin . " Hoke " - so French name sounds crook with a curved handle.

But most historians agree that the game was born in Canada, more than a hundred years ago. According to one of the statements beginning this game was supposed to , when about 1867 British soldiers played into something resembling a modern ice hockey frozen surface area of ​​Kingston in Ontario . On the right to be the birthplace of ice hockey in Montreal and Kingston claim . First hockey rules students created the University of Montreal in 1875, there was held the first match March 3, 1875 at the rink "Victoria" Both teams participated from 9 athletes. Rules of the game is a bizarre , but very promising mixture of field hockey and rugby football. Used instead of a puck halved ball field hockey . Later it was replaced by a wooden , and then hard rubber disc. And all through the 10 years in Kingston existed Hockey League .

Of course , the former hockey only mind was similar to modern. Was not the equipment , the players did not use helmets , was not invented goalie mask . Even at the gate was not mesh. Hockey has been slower tactically monotonous. There was crushing throws dizzying tricks , skillful combat power . Swirl the pace when athletes have time to give everything in less than a minute was then unthinkable . Quite a long time in the teams were nine players. It took a lot of time in the conditions of the game was introduced significant clause - the team can have on the site no more than six players

In 1890 was organized by the Ontario Hockey League , which consisted of 10 teams . In 1893, Governor General of Canada, Lord Stanley 's Cup for the best established Canadian team . Until 1910 this prize - it was called the Stanley Cup - played both amateurs and professionals , speakers , so to speak , in mixed teams . In 1917 was formed National Hockey League (NHL) , uniting all Canadian professional teams . And seven years later , in 1924, to Canadians in the NHL and is now the first American team from Boston.

In Europe, the Canadian Hockey brought students at the beginning of XX century. Despite the fact that friendlies between hockey players and hockey players in Canada European countries (England , Germany, Belgium , Switzerland) came to an end , usually with a " narrow the " account ( in most cases, even with a two-digit ) interest in hockey grew . In 1906, representatives of France, Belgium , the Czech Republic and Switzerland, was organized by the International Hockey League . In 1910, the first championship was played Old World. It participated in the UK national teams ( she won ) , Germany, Belgium and Switzerland. The first world championship, which brought in official competition the strongest teams of the Old and the New World, was held in Antwerp (Belgium ) in 1920, during the VII Olympic Games . Winners , naturally , became Canadians . In 1924 at the Olympic tournament in Shamponi (France), later recognized second world championship advantage Canadians looked even more overwhelming than four years ago. By 1954 , when she made her debut in the World Cup team of the USSR , Canadians dominant in world hockey , had on his account for fifteen highest titles (out of twenty possible ) . Twice world champions became Czechoslovak ice hockey players and on time - prefabricated UK, USA and Sweden. Such was the balance of power in world hockey by 1954 .

 

 

 

 

 

3 . Hockey in Canada.

Ice hockey shape as a sports game in Canada , but his "father " had a ball game and sticks on the ice , popular in Holland XYI-XYII centuries. Ice hockey, similar to modern hockey with a ball , was one of the favorite games of the Dutch. Evidenced by the numerous engravings and paintings by Dutch artists of the time .

 

Gradually interest in ice hockey in Europe fell , and only in the second third of the XIX century. Hockey again won citizenship. And although modern hockey " born " in Canada, " guilty " in this were British. From Holland ice hockey arrived in England , and from there to Canada. Already in the 70th years of XIX century. hockey program included in all winter sports holidays in Canada. First hockey rules were formulated by university students in Montreal. The role of the gate began to carry out the two stones on the ice, which helped to determine the size of the space in which you can score the puck .

 

Found that the first official ice hockey match held in Montreal at the rink "Victoria" March 3, 1875 : The teams consisted of nine people , the game was a wooden disk , and gates were used . In 1879, Canadian UF Robertson formulated the rules of hockey, first proposed to apply to play the rubber washer . The first official rules of hockey were published in 1886 the author of the new code of rules became the Canadian R. Smith. In that 1886 was the first international meeting between Canadian and Russian teams ( won Canadians ) . Championships began to hold annually, and handing the Stanley Cup winners . ( In 1893, the Governor General of Canada , Lord Stanley Briton , established for the silver cup the annual awarding of the best team of the country. ) in 1899 in Montreal was built the world's first domed stadium for playing hockey with artificial ice for up to 10,000 spectators. Organized by the Canadian Amateur Hockey League . Later, in 1914 , a professional ice hockey clubs united in the National Hockey League (NHL). And in 1908 , the United Kingdom , Bohemia , Switzerland, France and Belgium founded the International Hockey Federation ( LIHF after 1979 - IIHF ) . 1972 marked the creation of the World Hockey Association.

 

Constantly improving the game. In 1900, Canadian Francis Nelson invented the grid for gates made ​​of fishnet . This was an important innovation , permanently close the eternal question: whether the goal? Fitted modern dimensions hockey rinks ( 61h30 m) . Playing time was divided into three periods of 20 minutes. each part of the field was reduced to 6 players began practicing replacement. In 1929, goalie Clint Benedict of the "Montreal Merunz " first put on the mask , the goalkeepers were allowed to make jumps while trying to recapture the puck . 1920 marked the first meeting in the official tournament Olympics teams Old and New Worlds . Canadians reaffirmed their strongest glory . Canadians won at the world championships in 1924 and 1928 GG In 1936, Britain win the title of Olympic champion , taking it from the Canadians, who owned it for 16 years.

 

In 1954 he debuted at the world championships Soviet hockey players and immediately took a leading position in world hockey . Very first meeting with the Canadians ended in victory for Soviet athletes - 7:2 . This victory brought the USSR team first world title .

 

Olympic champions are teams of the USSR - Russia - 9 times , Canada - 5 , United States - 2, UK - 1 Sweden - 1 , Czech Republic - 2. In our country, this game is not easy, and inoculated immediately. Already at the beginning of this century a number of sports clubs attempted to join the new game and even formed Russian hockey league , which in 1911 became a member of the International League for ice hockey, but soon dropped out of her , and then broke himself .

 

The first meeting with this game occurred in late 1932 , when the team arrived in Moscow German labor union " Fichte " . The guests brought our athletes unfamiliar putter and washers unusual ammunition , offering owners spend a few friendly games . First to respond hockey Central Red Army House . Masters of Russian hockey, only acquainted with the puck, were stronger. Canadian game then, however , did not survive , although remaining after the visit " Fichte " equipment used for some time as a textbook at the Central Institute of Physical Education. And that students of the Moscow Institute of Physical Culture in February 1946 held at the stadium "Dinamo" demonstration games hockey , 9 months before the premiere of the all-Union hockey .

 

Happy birthday hockey in Russia is considered December 22, 1946 , when in Moscow, Leningrad , Riga , Kaunas and Arkhangelsk were played the first matches of the first USSR championship in ice hockey. Today it is impossible to recall without a smile , for example, the vast harem players fumbling attempts to raise the players throw the puck into the air, suffering goalies encumbered by heavy , stubborn stick, the penalty bench , and nicknamed " solitary confinement " and " cell " and " Place of the Skull ." Strikes and courage players , speakers without any protective equipment. Steadfastly kept pioneers hockey and blows from party ideologues , who called the new game and primitive , and harmful to health , and even alien to the spirit of the Soviet people .

 

Contrary to from match to match the number of spectators in the stands grew steadily . Establish and hockey economy. From quilted jackets in the household get the hand sew protective gear , hockey pants. Goalkeepers put boxing and fielders - bicycle helmets .

 

Canadian hockey on Russian soil taken from football flavor to the game in passing, a passion for multi-step , and from bandy - space velocity, virtuoso skates.

 

In the spring of 1953 at the Congress LIHG Soviet Ice Hockey Federation was accepted as a member of this international organization . A year later, in 1954 , in Stockholm, subdued domestic hockey world hockey summit. The true heroes of the tournament were goalies Nikolai Tufts and Gregory Mkrtchyan, Alfred defenders Kuchevsky Dmitry Pricks , Alexander Vinogradov , Paul Zhiburtovich Henry Sidorenkov , Vsevolod Bobrov strikers Victor Shuvalov , Alexei Guryshev , Yury Krylov , Mikhail Bychkov, Alexander Uvarov , Valentin Kuzin Yevgeny Babich, Khlystov Nicholas , Alexander Komarov . Virtually the same composition won in 2 years and the Olympic gold medal .

 

The next generation of Soviet hockey stars picked up and successfully carried by this winning baton . In the 60s in the USSR team shone with such outstanding artists as Viktor Konovalenko Konstantin Loktev, Veniamin Alexandrov , Alexander Almetov , Boris Mayorov , Vyacheslav Starshinov Viktor Yakushev , Stanislav Petukhov, Anatoly Firsov , Eduard Ivanov , Alexander Ragulin , Victor Kuz'kin Vitaly Davydov . Our team then became a recognized leader in the world of amateur hockey .

 

1972 - special in the history of Russian hockey . There is a change of players, coaches change . Over from the star couple Chernyshev Tarasov took Vsevolod Bobrov . And under his leadership, our ice team for the first time crossed sticks in the internal rivalry with the Canadian team , made ​​up of the strongest players in these matches revealed NHL.V Hockey giving a new generation of players : Vladislav Tretiak , Valery Vasiliev , Gennady Tsygankova , Lutchenko Vladimir , Vladimir Petrov , Boris Mikhailov , Valery Kharlamov , Alexander Yakushev , Vladimir Shadrin Alexander Maltsev.

 

Victorious series they repeat their predecessors failed, but the national team won the world championships in 1973 , 1974, 1975 's and 1976 Olympic tournament in Innsbruck.

 

In 1977, the national team and club CSKA Moscow headed by Viktor Tikhonov . Under his tutelage shone skill Vyacheslav Fetisov , Alexei Kasatonov , Helmut Balderisa , Sergei Makarov , Igor Larionov , Vladimir Hardball , Victor Zhluktova and many other masters. During his ticket to the big hockey received and those who now is listed among the most famous players in the National Hockey League - Valeri Kamensky , Sergei Fedorov , Alexander Mogilny , Pavel Bure .

 

In the 90s the lack of stability has prompted many leading players to seek his fortune in the rich foreign clubs . Domestic hockey lost its stars , and the only consolation is the fact that most of them are not lost in a strange hockey, and vice versa - are leaders , including clubs in the NHL , and thus maintain the high reputation of the Russian hockey school .

 

In recent years, women's hockey teams added competition . This species is included in the program of the Olympic Winter Games in 1998 in Nagano, Japan . Became the first Olympic champion U.S. team .

4 . What is hockey

Hockey - a team sport game , which takes place at a fast pace and is full of sharp , unexpected situations quickly replaced . Players move around the ice on skates, sticks tend to throw the puck into the opponent's net and protect a save from destruction.

 

Held in an ice hockey court size 61h30 m, rectangular shape with rounded corners radius 8.5 m All fenced playground wooden or plastic beads height 122 cm field is divided into zones. Wide blue lines drawn across the rink under the ice at a distance of 18 m from the edges isolated zone protection and attacking zone . Protection zone - the one where the gate of his team, attack zone - with a gate of the enemy. Between the blue lines - the middle area . All even field is divided in half centerline red. Gates small height - 122 cm, width - 183 cm They are made of metal pipes with a diameter of 5 cm and rear have a metal grid.

The game goes 60 minutes. " Net time " (3 periods of 20 minutes. Intermittently for 10 min. Between periods ) . High pace of the modern game and the frequent change of game situations are a great burden , so in the course of the game players are usually replaced after 40 - 45 seconds. But the replacement in the game is made strictly on places , ie center forward instead of the central right-back instead of the right . Directly involved in the game other than the goalkeeper no more than 5 players: right and left back , right wing , center and left winger . This one change , then there are players who are currently struggling . Normally, incorporates four pairs of defenders and four triples hitter , or in other words , four shifts , five . International Ice Hockey Federation to permit the participation in one game to 22 players on each team .

 

A) Defender

Defender must be able to deal. He naturally and quickly runs backwards , performs hairpin turns , quickly changes the direction of running , it is very stable on skates.

In the highly regarded defenders skill suddenly destroy the opponent's attack and quickly create sharp counterattack his team. This skill can not buy if you do not master the techniques of playing such as the selection of a club with a power washer combative , washers transfer partner of any of the provisions , and especially along the diagonal and rolling fields on front comrade.

Coaches do not emphasize the role of chance accurate transmission of any of the provisions .

Defender - servant of the attack, it is entirely their actions are governed by the attackers.

Defender need to possess strong and throws shot the puck. Defender in the area of ​​the opponent , to a lesser extent than its partners - hitters can afford to drive a puck.

Good defenders are eager to participate in the attack front of goal . They are particularly active when the team has a numerical superiority. Defence players are located at the turn of the opponent and choose a position to be able to get the puck and throw it strongly on goal or accurately convey partners. If the defender has an equal choice: circle the opponent or to perform the transfer , he did not hesitate obliged otpasovat puck partner.

Hockey defender has long ceased to be just a destroyer . Now he is a creator , a full partner hitter who hits a target no worse and sometimes better than the most skilled forwards. Good quarterback - that's who knows how to foresee the development of several moves and the possible continuation of the attack and the time to keep up on the most dangerous stretch of defense.

The motto of the defense - security gate first. It should be ready in a difficult moment to take the puck over, block it with his body flying . This requires courage, dedication and contempt for danger, because the speed of a flying puck sometimes exceeds 150 km / h

 

B) Winger .

In wingers are more valuable " explosive " actions are meant here and starting speed and suddenness and unexpected opponent for jerk reaction and quickness . Wing, which more often than other players , as sole way to the goal , constantly encounters an open challenge to the power clash . Therefore, it must be physically strong and yet very clever . It is not always wise to go to a frontal attack . Sometimes it is better to cheat , use dummy . A winger should have all kinds of techniques.

If the attackers lost the puck , they immediately try to select it , engaging in combat with an opponent . When this fails , you need to quickly go back and take part in the defense.

Wingers should seek to play a concert with all stakeholders especially the central striker. Constantly look for a free place to get the puck. To be able to play well at the side and come out on top in the martial arts with his rival .

Problem wingers - score goals . But the goal in hockey - is not only a sure shot. To be able to throw the puck at the target , it is necessary for a long time and a lot of circling , cunning , trace , maneuver to pass the puck and partners to take them back, racing at high speed. Wingers have to run for several kilometers match , and the best up to 10 km .

B) Central striker

He belongs indisputably a major role in modern hockey . This place is usually put the most talented hockey player , versed in all difficult situations of the game. Central striker misses very often in a difficult position - he plays the most dangerous opponent for the portion of the field , that it is often a point of attack , and therefore the success of frontline action is primarily determined by its tactical thinking and individual technical skills . He must possess the best qualities of attackers and defenders , and, moreover, have a pronounced tendency to collective game. The team goes on the attack - its frontline manager and assistant to the partners . Defending team - he, along with defenders hold back the tide opponent. If the central striker played poorly in the attack or defense, is an immediate impact on the game all five players.

Physical fitness in central striker should be higher than that of other players. Central striker acts on the entire field. He organizes and participates in the attack protection - it depends on the situation prevailing on the ice.

But his basic position - before the gates of the enemy, to " patch" , where it is most convenient to score the puck . The right to occupy this " snout" for a moment have to produce a continuous struggle over the entire field . Main striker and defense , because he has to hold the most dangerous , the same as the central striker he enemy.

 

D) Goalkeeper .

The special role of a goalkeeper . They say that a reliable goalkeeper - is half the battle . If he plays poorly , no protection will not save the team from defeat. 'Goalie heavier and stronger protective harness, his broad stick , and he stands on low skates with wide runners . Stick in one hand , and on the other a special glove to catch the puck.

Good goalkeeper - the player with strong nerves , strong-willed and unflappable . A moment of relaxation , he can not afford. Defenders and attackers are playing an average of 15 - 20 minutes, and all 60 goalkeeper . And each carries the threat of " taking " the gate. We give an example. 75 shots in one game but unsuccessful U.S. team at the World Championships in 1977 in Vienna (Austria) . On none goalkeeper did not lose such loads at the world championships . Such a goalkeeper can not do not deserve respect . His team will love and protect from trouble .

D ) Judge

Over the course of a hockey game watching an entire team of judges . Three of them on the ice - they are for all to see . The rest - and five of them - usually remain unnoticed. For each goal - to judge. They observe , if the puck crossed the goal line , and once this happens , press the button , and then over the gate of the red light . Two watching stopwatches . One finds a match. It consists of three periods of 20 "pure" minutes. As soon as the referee stops play on the whistle and the referee stops the clock . Washer thrown - lent watch . Other monitors penalty time , which makes the guilty player on the bench . Finally , the eighth judge shall keep the minutes of the match.

 

5.Rules of the game

Not versed in the game people think that everything is allowed in hockey . Not at all. Allowed to push the enemy interference , chest, shoulder or hip. You can not do it more than two steps forward and push on board. It is forbidden to put forward a stick , skates or knee , push the enemy hands. Body can only play against hockey player , interference , and its partners can stand in the way , and no more.

If the team succeeds in taking the gate at the time when the opposing team is in the minority on one or more penalized players , the hockey player, fined the first returned to the ice ( he remains on the bench penalty if it receives a double minor penalty , this if it ends with the first penalty ) .

Very rare, but occur in games such situations , when a judge forced to appoint and remove a large fine hockey player from the field for 5 minutes of pure time without the right replacement. 5 - minute penalty hockey departs completely ( even if his team conceded a goal ) for the following violations :

1. Damage by enemy stick raised above his shoulder .

In the arch of hockey rules states that a player is punished for misconduct , if it offends anyone - rival judge partner if he is arguing with the judges or shows disrespect to the decisions of the Referee, deliberately knocks or drops the puck beyond the reach of the Chief Justice or beats stick on the board to express their discontent .

1. Intentionally foul play in any zone (replacing another player after 5 minutes ) .

2 . Intentionally rough play , which resulted in the enemy was damaged (replacement by another player after 10 minutes ) .

At the same time more than two players from one team judges are not removed. Third on the intruder replaces any of the partners. Time penalty is calculated from the output on the ice of one of two remote .

Free throw - a kind of hockey penalty . As in football, it involves only two players - goalie and hockey player , who will perform a free throw .

Any violation of the rules , which relies for free throw washer is placed on the central point of the field , and hockey player , appointed captain of the team , the signal Chief Justice leads the puck and trying to score a goal. Athlete performing a free throw can not stay in front of the goalkeeper, to better aim.

Sam goalkeeper should be in the goal area as long as the puck pass the blue line , and then

"Offside " is fixed in the case of :

1. If an offensive player went into the opponent's zone before the puck found myself there .

2 . If the player has the puck behind the center line probroshennuyu his partner out of their zone defense.

3 . If the puck probroshena from own half behind the gates of the enemy .

But in general the rules are constantly changing , and write them all just does not make sense .

 

6. Tech game

Tech game - a set of special techniques required for a successful hockey player to participate in competitions.

Game of hockey is very varied techniques used . Techniques used in hockey, can be divided into several groups ; movement on skates, stick and puck possession , feints , selection washers ( power struggle , the selection of the stick) .

 

A) Moving on skates

For a great hockey player skating means more than just the ability to move quickly from one place to another field hockey . Hockey player should be able to skate so natural and so easy not to think about how to take your ice skates and how to put them on ice. Thought hockey player should be focused on the stick and puck on the choice of the position and development of the attack.

All movements are made in hockey landing position ( rack) . By planting ( bar ) is understood hockey body position during a game, in which the torso is tilted forward, legs bent at the hip , knee and ankle joints , the stick is on the ice or in the position of the grip with both hands. Distinguish between high and low landing. Applying varying depending on the game situation in which the player is currently located .

Skating has the following varieties ; run short ( shock ) step , running long ( sliding ) step , running sprints ( skrestnye step , stepping ) , running with turns backwards , starting with places braking.

 

B) Possession of a stick and a washer

Ice skating is the bedrock of hockey, but the ability to control the puck - the second most important component of hockey skills. Grandstand watching just for the player who owns the washer . The combination of anger management with the ability to own skates hockey - just one of the factors that make hockey a truly peerless game, which can succeed only great master . Hockey player should be able to quickly and easily move around on skates, feel the puck on the stick , monitor ready to join with him in combat opponent approaching him at a speed close to 60 km / h From the ability to properly hold a hockey stick and a perfect command of it depends largely on the ease and efficiency of all its actions.

Often , having a puck, hockey is not able to convey to her partner and himself must manipulate it, holding on to the stick and trying to get past the defenders. Typically the puck are middle hook. There are the following methods of washers : smooth conduct , management method , " cutting " , keeping the side washers and

maintaining puck stick and skate. Doing may be a straight line, a circle, changing direction and speed /

Throws - is attacking actions of the individual player , in which he seeks in various ways to send the puck into the opponent's net. The player throwing the ball out must accurately assess the game situation , and simultaneously see the position of goalkeeper and overt place in goal . This allows him to correctly and on time to decide how and where you want to throw.

Throws washer can be performed on ice and in the air, on the ground and in motion after conducting , and stop without stopping , teeter washer etc.

 

B) Feint and stop washers

Feints used in attack and defense with the aim to beat the opponent by fraudulent acts . Tricks you can do with the puck and without the puck while standing still and in motion. Feint can be kicked , stick, torso nod. They can be combined - checking and torso , trunk and stick, with a nod and movement of the body , etc.

Turns shoulders, shifting of body weight , head movement and feints checking techniques are those components of deceptive movements , which are a manifestation of hockey savvy .

Among the techniques of the game occupies an important place stop the puck. By acting collectively , using a variety of transmission mastering washer in combat or intercepting the puck sent rival hockey player in the game very often forced to stop her . It's not only good to stop the puck , but also to spend a minimum amount of time for performance reception

Only the clarity and speed of execution allow further implement its hockey player tactical plan ; throw the puck on goal , to send or take advantage of the stroke . You can stop checking the puck , skate , foot , hand and torso .

Hockey player must to master all the techniques of stop flying or sliding on ice puck while standing still or on the move .

 

D) Methods of power struggle and selection summary

These techniques are applied against the player with the puck, with the aim of mastering. There are two most common methods of power play trunk : push the opponent's shoulder and push hip first applied in cases where the defender rolled back in their zone or moving backwards near rival. Aiming arm to the chest leading puck , the player with the power of throwing his body weight on the opponent , and the main driving force is created by the push of delayed back foot.

Reception opponent 's thigh is used when the defender for a moment too late to push the shoulder and thus allowed him to start crawling .

Tackling washers - one of the main methods of protection. Tackling washers performed with and without the use of power devices . Washer can select a club , urging the opponent's stick bottom, side or via the interception . The puck into the opponent easier when he accepts it . Interception often possible when the opponent inaccurately passed the puck to his partner .

 

7. Physical fitness of players .

No matter how skilled , technical hockey player, no matter how freely he owned no stroke techniques , no matter how closely and suddenly no throwing the puck , these advantages did little to win . Athlete's success largely depends on its strength, endurance , speed, agility . Physical development, athletic quality hockey largely determine its capabilities in the performance of any technical action . Strong , powerful hockey player can send the puck with more force the body to play with great effect . Endurance athlete sustain a high tempo throughout the match . Also important quickness , agility and other physical qualities .

 

A) Power

Power - one of the most important athletic qualities necessary hockey player . Force is necessary and skating , and when the puck is shot , and the power struggle . Power largely affects the speed and is very important in the development of mobility ..

 

B) Fast

Fast - is a person's ability to perform physical actions in the shortest possible time. Quickness hockey depends on its reaction rate movements and their frequency. All these main manifestations speed is very important in hockey, this game is consonant century high speeds , where everything is based on vortex attacks on sudden jerks , stops, accelerations .

Maximum speed with which people can manifest in any motion depends not only on the speed of the athlete , but also on the extent of his other qualities : strength, flexibility , technical equipment. Therefore, the development speed is closely linked with the development of other physical qualities.
