Each blue player has two balls and are stood in a line outside the free throw line. An attacking player is stood high up the wing, close to the baseline on both sides.
When the coach blows their whistle players pass one at a time, starting with the closest player, to the wing player who must then make a shot on goal (so red player 1 will receive their first pass from blue player 1).
After each player has had four shots players collect the balls and rotate one position in a clockwise direction.
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.
