Handball: Jump Shot - Target Practice

On the coach's call an attacker and a defender both set off and run around the cone.

The defender is trying to get around the cone quicker than the attacker so that they can get in front of them and hinder their shot (no tackling).

Once around the cone the attacker should aim to get a jump shot off on goal.

Variations:

• 3 step rythm (right handers : left,right,left and left handers : right,left,right)
• 2 step or even in 1 step
  jumping off : left handers : right foot, right handers : left foot
• jump off with your 'wrong' foot (1,2,3 steps)

Players stand in line and take it in turns to pass to the feeder (blue 1) and then run forwards to move onto the return pass.

Players should look to catch the ball near the 7meter line and take off before the edge of the goal area line on their strong foot.

Once they've received the ball players must throw a jump shot before landing as far as possible  inside the D

Variations:

• 3 step rythm (right handers : left,right,left and left handers : right,left,right)
• 2 step or even in 1 step
  jumping off : left handers : right foot, right handers : left foot
• jump off with your 'wrong' foot (1,2,3 steps)

Two teams, each with goalkeepers, play across a half-court sized pitch.

Play with normal rules.

Dribbling the ball, players take it in turns to run forward to the defender.

When they get close (around 2-1 meters away) they should jump off, in front of the defender, and throw at the goal.

Defender must try and block the shot.
