cluster checking

Question
Can you explain the term cluster checking, which i read und on coachingboard.

perhaps it is possible to accompany it with a graph or a diagram or something

many thanks in advance

Answer
Hi Martin...

Hmmm i have never really heard this term before - at least not for intentionally playing or teaching aspects of the game...

I know in the younger kids play - there are references like bumble bee hockey and something similar to cluster checking - where all the kids follow the puck in a big bunch!

Besides that - I don't really know what this refers to.

Sorry

Thanks
