These drills, which are easy to teach, execute and implement, will develop hand speed and reinforce the importance of low positioning so that you can gain advantage over your opponent. Your individual face-offs will become faster and stronger, and defensively you will be able to quickly identify your opponent's first move and counter with the appropriate defensive move. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrip Workouts for Face-Offs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe presentation ends with Coach Christensen's demonstration of weight room exercises.
