It’s time for Footwork ! What is footwork and why is it so important? Footwork is one of the most important skills that a player can practice and try to improve upon (especially for defensemen). Footwork is the ability to move the feet independently of each other. It is the ability to go forward to backward, backward to forward, or side to side while maintaining speed and control. The game of hockey changes direction so quickly that a skater seems to be in constant motion. The better the skater’s footwork, the easier everything becomes.
