Kids Are Stickhandling With The Wrong Hand

Author: Coach Rox

Posted on: April 30, 2026

Summary

Without wrist strength kids can’t stickhandle properly. The earlier we develop top hand strength, the better their stickhandling will become.

Back in the olden days, we used wrist curls to develop strength but simply stickhandling with your top hand only does a better job for stickhandling as it works the wrist in all different angles and you get the endurance benefits as well.

I’ve got a new stickhandling challenge starting soon make sure you’re getting my emails to be notified.
