Attacker wants to get past the defender on the left not using the swinging arm technique.
Attacher lands on both feet when catching the ball. In this way she fixes the defender.
First step is with her right foot cross-over and she tries to get past the defender as far as possible.
During this moment she protects the ball with both hands and a slightly sideward position of the body.
Second step is left, explosive and straight to the goal to have a 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.
