"The next penalty we're gong to show you is cross checking. The hand signal for cross checking is, like this. And it's usually a minor penalty, but depending on the severity you could get a more severe penalty. So, different ways a cross checking penalty could happen is if a player is skating towards you and you just go like this. Actually we'll demonstrate it. So if a player is coming towards you and you go like this, and you keep both hands on the shaft and it's not on the ice, the stick is not on the ice, it's up here. And you go like that. You're going to get called for cross checking. Also if a player is standing away from you and you do that, just like that. That's going to be cross checking. Also if a player happens to be on the ice and you don't like what's gong on, and you give one of these, you?re going to get called for cross checking. So, don't do it."
