Handball: Late Support

Excellent site. Very concise and easy to use. I'll definitely be emailing...

David, Handball Coach

DESCRIPTION

The wide attacker plays a one-two pass with the central attacking player. After this they then run forward and try to get past the left back.

If they're unable to get past on their own they should wait for the support run from the central player who should aim to run between the defenders and play a jump shot on goal.

COACHING POINTS

The support player should make it clear that they want the pass by calling to the other player.

Although the defenders know the attack is coming they should still practice moving as a unit - shuffling across to cover the space.

4 vs 4 - Make the Space:

4 attacking players against 4 defenders - with the attackers trying to score a goal.

The attackers start on either wing and take it in turn to run forward and try to get past their opposite number.

If they are unable to get past their marker the players should pass the ball across the line to a fellow attacker.

Meet the Pass and Shoot - With two man pressure:

Player 1 is acting as the feeder as all other players line up to their left and right. Player one carries the ball towards the defender in order to create space for the players to their left and right.

Once they have engaged the defender they should offload the ball to their left, in front of player 2.

Player 2 so must move forwards to meet the pass. Once they have the ball under control they should switch the ball cross-court to player 3, making sure their pass is out of the defender's reach.

Player 3 runs onto this pass and must then engage the second defender before offloading a quick pass to player 4 who then runs on to shoot on goal.
