Diagram

Zone diagram of 2v2 Point Shot. The point player dumps the puck into the corner, an O player wins it and carries up the wall, passes to the point, and the point shoots on the corner net while the other O goes to the net.

Coaching points

Win the race to the puck and protect it along the wall.
Use the point: move it up, then get to the net for tips and rebounds.
On a turnover, regroup to the point before you attack.
D: stick on puck, body on body, and clear the front of the net.

How it runs

Put a net in each corner. Groups of 5 per net: 2 O, 2 D and 1 point player (or a coach at the point with groups of 4).
The point dumps the puck into the corner and the 2v2 starts.
The team with the puck can pass up to the point for a shot.
On a change of possession, move the puck up to the point before attacking.
Goal or 60 seconds: O and D swap. Each group gets 1 turn on O, 1 on D and 1 rest.
