Two players with a ball each approach the goal and feint as to shoot, but only one of them really shoots. The goalkeeper tries to stop the ball. Then another ball is rolled to the goal. The goalkeeper fetches this ball and passes to the running player.
Ensure the two players communicate beforehand which player is shooting and which player is breaking, to avoid the goalkeeper having two balls thrown at him.
Not only can this drill be used in your training session, but you can also use it to warm up the goalkeeper before a game.
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.
