Quick Change

Alternative names: --
Objective: For blockers to practice paying attention to the jammer(s) in the pack and playing either offensively or defensively depending on what is going on in the pack
Typical length of drill: 10-15 mins
Materials needed: A full track or just a couple of cones to mark the inside track line
Skill level required: None if you choose to run this as a non-contact drill
Description: Divide the skaters into small packs with teams of four to six people each. Designate a jammer from each pack. The jammer will have a jammer panty from each team. The jammer starts in the back of the pack and changes her helmet cover right before she starts to skate through the pack. Each team must adjust to offense or defense depending on which jammer panty the jammer is wearing.
