Players stand a few steps behind their cone.
The first player with the ball in hand should step up to their cone and then aim their pass in front of their target recipient (pass to that player's cone).
As the pass is made in front of them players should be ready to move forwards to receive the ball and then pass it to another player as fast as possible (without losing control of the ball).
Fast passing, good movement to meet the ball.
Players should recognise that if they move forwards to meet the pass they are cutting down the window of opportunity for the opposition to drive in and make an interception.
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.
