Deke the Pylon

For age level: 8 to 10

Explanation: Player skates towards the first pylon with the puck, dekes to the inside then goes to the outside. At the second pylon, player dekes to the outside and goes to the inside.

Tips: Ensure the player makes a wide movement with the puck along with a head fake on the deke movement. Switch the pylon for a coach with a stick to ensure they move the puck wide enough.
