Push Pass

1. Body Position: Start with a balanced and stable body position, with your feet shoulder-width apart. Keep your knees slightly bent and your weight evenly distributed on both feet.

2. Grip: Hold your stick with both hands, keeping them relaxed but firm. The left hand should be placed at the top of the stick near the grip, while the right hand should be positioned slightly lower, about midway down the stick.

3. Backswing: To generate power, bring the stick back behind you as you transfer your weight to your back foot. This will help create momentum for the push pass.

4. Contact Point: As you initiate the pass, make contact with the ball using the flat part of your stick. Aim to strike the middle or lower half of the ball to ensure a flat and accurate pass.

5. Follow Through: After making contact with the ball, continue to follow through with your stick in the direction of your intended target. This will help improve the accuracy and power of the pass.

6. Accuracy: Focus on your target and aim to pass the ball directly to your intended recipient. Keep your eyes on the target throughout the pass to ensure accuracy.

7. Timing: Coordinate your push pass with the movement of your teammates to ensure they are ready to receive the ball. Anticipate their positioning and pass the ball at the right moment to maximize effectiveness.

8. Communication: Use verbal and non-verbal signals to communicate your intention to pass. This will help your teammates anticipate and react to your push pass more effectively.

9. Practice: Regularly practice your push pass technique to improve both power and accuracy. Incorporate drills and game-like situations to simulate realistic scenarios and enhance decision-making skills.

10. Game Awareness: Understand when to use a push pass in a game situation. Assess the positioning of opponents and teammates to determine if a push pass is the most suitable option, or if another pass or shooting opportunity may be more suitable.
