Attacker wants to get past the defender on the left using the 'swinging - arm' technique.
Defender acts as follows :
- step forwards arms slightly bent and hands open forward
- when noticing the 'swinging-arm' technique, step backwards a bit so that the swinging arm is in front of defender in the air instead of over the shoulder of defender
- let the arm swing and push against the shoulder of the attacker to get her out of balance.
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.
