Two teams stand at opposite ends of the area, each player has a ball, with a line of cones along the middle.
Standing at a distance from the cones (increase/ decrease distance dependant on players' ages) players take it in turns to throw and aim at the cones.
Each cone that a player hits is a point for their team. Once all the cones have been hit the team with the most points is the winner.
Ensure players put their correct foot in front (left handers right foot, right handers left foot).
Put the ball onto your hand (do not squeeze into the ball too tightly) and when throwing the ball players' hands should pass their heads at ear height!
Progression:
Get players to through from a jump shot.
Handball demands explosive power, repeated sprint ability, and the strength to compete physically for 60 minutes. Sport-specific conditioning develops the athletic qualities that underpin elite performance.
Handball matches are won and lost in critical moments. Mental toughness determines who executes under pressure, who recovers from setbacks, and who maintains concentration throughout 60 intense minutes.
Deception is the great equaliser in handball. Smaller, less powerful players can beat defenders through feints and misdirection. Mastering these skills creates breakthrough opportunities against even the most organised defences.
