A player is judged to be offside if both of their skates completely cross the blue line dividing their offensive zone from the neutral zone before the puck completely crosses the same line. In both organizations, it is the position of a player's skates that are important.

Have the players demonstrate examples of gaining an advantage to make the example clear.emonstrate the offside position to the kids. To be in an offside position, the offensive player needs to be closer to the opposing team's net than the second to last defender, and must be closer to the net than the ball.
