This is the best handball site I have visited.

Joelma

DESCRIPTION

Teams each have a mat that they must try and defend.

Teams pass the ball around with the intention of placing the ball on the other team's mat (like scoring a try in rugby).

COACHING POINTS

Variations :

Play with 4 mats, each team must alternate the mat they score on - they are not allowed to score on the same mat two times in a row.

Catching:

Reach for the ball with open palms, make a W with your thumbs and index finger. Once caught move the ball towards your body to protect it.

Team possession - Neutral player game

Meanwhile the other team has to try and intercept the ball.

Dribble Tag

All players except for two defenders are dribbling inside a half-court area.

The two defenders start tagging the other players. Once tagged players must put their ball aside and help the taggers.

The last player dribbling is the winner.

Team dribble - Points game

In this game there are more attackers than defenders.

The aim for the attackers is to dribble from one line to the other without being dispossessed. Every time they successfully do this they score a point for their team.

After a player is tackled they may retrieve their ball but they will not score a point on that turn.

Each team has 10 runs before you the teams are changed.

The team who scored the most runs is the winning side.
