Sometimes it is tough keeping your practice sessions fun with fresh drills. If you're practicing stickhandling every day, it is hard to not get bored with doing the same drills over and over again. Practice makes perfect and you probably are seeing improvement, but sometimes changing things up a little bit is nice.
Here are just a few videos I found on the USA Hockey website. There are some good ideas that you can use in your daily practice sessions. I am a fan of the drills that incorporate moving your feet, too. Makes it a bit more challenging.
Hope these can help out with your off ice training this summer! Also, see if you can spot any NHL'ers in these videos, they are from the National Development Program. I think one is of a young #88, you can probably tell by his mitts....
Here is the link to the rest of the videos.
