Your website has been very helpful. What I have learnt has helped...
Abier, Handball Coach

DESCRIPTION

When B1 is just in front of the cone : pass B5-B1 who dribbles towards the goal and throws at the goal.

variations :
- 3 step rythm (right handers : left,right,left and left handers : right,left,right)
- 2 step or even in 1 step
- jumping off : left handers : right foot, right handers : left foot
- jump off with your 'wrong' foot (1,2,3 steps)

COACHING POINTS

  • final step is explosive and large
  • in the air the hip should go backward together with the throwing arm
  • pull up other leg until upper leg is horizontal
  • land on the same leg as you jumped off

PROGRESSION

  1. add a defender who acts passively, only moves a bit from side to side
  2. add two defenders : defenders should act passively as attackers come in at high speed. The two defenders should leave just enough space for the attacker.
