Hockey: 50 Training Tips

By Andreu Enrich

What if I told you that the most important moment of your coaching week isn't on match day, but during the week on your training pitch?

The old adage "we play as we train" is a fundamental truth, yet many coaches still follow an outdated paradigm of simplification, decomposition, and mindless drills. We run our sessions, tick the boxes, and hope for the best on game day. But what if our training could be something more? What if it could be the very center of gravity where our team's culture, power, and unique style of play are forged?

In "50 Training Tips," don't expect to find a collection of drills or a rigid content grid. This book is a deep dive into a modern training methodology, rooted in complexity, ecological dynamics, and a profound respect for the player as a human being. It is a guide designed to make you question everything you do on the training pitch, moving you from being a director of drills to an architect of learning environments.

Inside, and inspired by the methodology used at the Mannheimer HC First Men's Team in Germany, you will discover 50 practical tips that cover every aspect of a training session: from overall season planning and session design to how to execute them most effectively on the pitch.

If you are willing to challenge your assumptions and elevate your training sessions from a mere routine into an art form, this book might help you take the first step.
