Players line up on the sideline with a ball each and take it in turns to run across the court.
As they approach each cone players should pass to static players making a sharp move towards the static players, feinting movement in that direction, before cutting back out to receive the pass in space.
Players all perform three cuts before they reach the other side of the court - where they then dribble with the ball around the area to the back of the line.
Look for a clear change of pace and direction. In a game situation players will need to convince the opposition that their feint is a genuine movement in order to wrong foot them and create space in which they can receive the ball.
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.
