Handball: Dodge the cone!

Thank you Sportplan. The drills and videos have been extremely beneficial...

Dumitru

DESCRIPTION

Set up 3 cones along the width of the pitch on both sides. Player have a ball each.

Players must dribble up to, and then feint past each cone. Along the first side players feint to the left and then go right.

Along the next line players must feint to the right and then drive to the right.

COACHING POINTS

Although this is a drill and the opposition is only a cone players should move dynamically - using a clear change of pace and direction when they change direction.

Feinting tips:

Keep still for a very short moment before starting the feint to 'fix' your defender (or cone).

Progression:

Set up a goal at the end of each set of cones for players to shoot into before they join the back of the next line and repeat in the opposite direction.

Feint and throw at the goal:

Players lineÂ up a few meters behind the 7 meter line where a cone is placed on the floor.

The wide player (blue 2) passes the ball to the player waiting in line who then runs forward to the cone. When they reach the cone players should be slightly to the left or the right of the cone.

Before being allowed to shoot players must 'get past the cone' using an effective dummy, cutting around the other side of the cone before shooting.

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)

One-Two step to feint:

Players play a one-two pass with the middle man.

When they receive the return ball players should use their two steps to get around the middle player (using a fake/feint).

After their second step players pass to the next player in the opposite line and then join the back of that line.

Drill continues in this way.

One-two pass then feint and shoot!:

The defender is protecting the area between the 8-9 metre lines.

The attacking players work in small 2 vs 1s. The player with the ball plays a one-two pass and then attempts to feint their way past the defending player.

After the shot players rotate positions - with the shooter becoming the next defender and the defender joining the shooting players.
