As a first time coach, or as a coach who has never coached a hockey style format, you are probably asking yourself how was I talked into this? If you already know the answer to that, then you may be asking yourself “What do I do now”? This manual will answer some of your questions. Ball hockey, like standard ice hockey is a fast-paced game requiring the combined elements of speed and skill. In a matter of seconds, the game moves quickly from offensive strategy to defensive strategy. Your ability to prepare ahead of the actual game itself ultimately dictates how easy or difficult your job as a coach becomes. For all divisions scheduling practice times, organized practice plans and even whom you select as assistant coaches can all have a dramatic impact on your team‟s success during the course of the season. Your goals should be for your players to have fun, develop or enhance their skills, develop or enhance leadership and sportsmanship skills and share in your team‟s success, whatever your team‟s definition of success may be. Please keep in mind, success and fun is subjective in definition to individuals alike. What is fun to one person may not be to another. Ultimately, we all want ball hockey to become an enjoyable sport for players, parents and coaches for many years to come. This is a fun filled sport, you can‟t go to university on a ball hockey scholarship. What is a Coach? 1. “In sports, a good coach has plenty of knowledge, they know how to motivate people and they have a passion for helping individuals get better”. Scotty Bowman Coaching is for anyone who enjoys and cares about kids. It is for women, men, parents, grandparents, high school and university athletes. What does it take to coach? It takes people who are sensitive, caring and organized. People who may not have played hockey but have the knowledge of the game to pass on and teach to others and who are willing to obtain proper training and continue to upgrade their coaching skills . People who thrive on working with others and who teach from the heart. Coaching a team requires a time commitment, practice planning and game strategy. When you coach kids, the results are real and immediate. There is responsibility as you enter the lives of young people. You share in the satisfaction as they learn, refine and master skills and implement the strategies that you have created. You share in the victories ,disappointments and setbacks that are part of any sport. More importantly, you share in their understanding of the word “team” and “team player”. However, the results of coaching are also subtle and long term. Through ball hockey, you will help players grow and develop as individuals. The athletic skills they learn from you are used for only a few years, but the attitudes and life skills they develop towards themselves and others will last a lifetime. Lead by Example: Teach and demonstrate fairness, co-operation, self-discipline, and respect for officials, the game of ball hockey and team opponents. Set a good example by never using foul language, showing up late for games or practices, and by following the principles of fair play. Lead by helping the team establish challenging but realistic goals, taking into account the ability and development of the players. Page 1 DMBHA Coaches Survival Guide 2012 Teach skills, strategy and rules: Be ready, willing and able to help your players develop to their full potential, while recognizing their differences. They come from different backgrounds, diverse talents, and grow and develop at different rates. Organize the team for games and practices: Emphasize FUN. Stress variety; encourage your players to try different positions keep things in perspective. Be flexible and willing to learn as you develop your skills as a coach. Do not be afraid to make mistakes or to ask for help when you need it. Fair Play : Ensure that all players get equal instruction, support and playing time. Encourage all players to play. Without playing time, players will not learn to enhance their skills and progressively become better players. Page 2 DMBHA Coaches Survival Guide 2012 Preseason

However previously conducted research on floorball from its managerial point of view is rare, especially on an international scale. The present investigation makes an attempt to fill this gap in a holistic manner. It explores the research problem of finding the potentials of floorball as a sustainably successful sport – worldwide and in the case country, Bulgaria. For this purpose the study utilizes the tasks of collecting and systematizing existing relevant data, binding floorball to theoretical frameworks of contemporary science and observing its development level and current issues globally and locally. The research uses a qualitative, ethnographic approach to obtain its goals, and includes participant observation, unstructured and semi-structured interviews.

  • Ball Hockey Rules
    Ball Hockey Rules The object of the game quite simply is to strike the ball with the hockey stick and knock it into the opponent's hockey net (6 feet wide x 4 feet high, 1.83 m x 1.22 m). Typically, a low-bounce type of ball is used. For added safety, hockey gloves and helmets are recommended, and in fact are mandatory for play in our member leagues. Any size or type of non-slip flooring can be used as a playing field. In Canada, most of our leagues operate in hockey arenas or gymnasiums. All CBHA provincial, regional and national events are held in full sized hockey arenas (generally around 200 feet long x 85 feet wide, 60.96 m x 25.91 m). When played on the surface of a hockey rink, six players, including the goalie, compete against the opposing team's six players. Extra players are usually kept on each bench, outside the playing surface, and interchanged with the six on the floor either during play or at a stoppage of play. When played on smaller surfaces, fewer players can be used during play. In its simplest form, the game can be played without floor markings and few rules. However, in organized competition regular ice hockey floor markings are used, including goal lines, goal creases, blue lines, center line, face-off circles and neutral zone face-off dots.The following are additional rules: • Face-offs (players are lined up facing each other in a designated area on the floor), are used at the start of each period of play and after goals, penalties, icing, offside, or when the ball leaves the playing area.

    LETTER FROM the president Greetings! As we start to shake off the cold from winter, we are all hoping that 2021 treats us better than 2020 did! We have been living in some strange times. One thing that remains the same is ball hockey and how much we all love to play. The rinks are opening back up faster than we can keep up and 2021 is kicking in gear. There have been a few things of note from over the winter and into the spring. I am proud to announce that since USABH registration has opened, we have had thousands of registrants enjoying the benefits of being a USABH member. As leagues begin to open back up, registrations are pouring in. This was a monumental effort by a great many people. Even more importantly, a big shout out to the league owners that have embraced the USABH vision. This unprecedented unification of our sport is truly amazing. I am looking forward to what the rest of the year brings and beyond. Another item worth mentioning is the unbelievable response we have gotten in regard to our new referee certification program and our coaching certification program. The response from this has been far greater than we were expecting. We have even had guests from across the globe attending our referee certification program from the UK and Pakistan. Again, there was a great deal that went into this. Huge credit goes out to our Referee in Chief, Mike Wahbi and our Director of Hockey Operations, Cory Herschk for leading in these efforts.
