Handball: Stand and Sit Catch

Description

Goalkeepers stand with a ball in front of them. They will throw the ball up high, quickly sit down, and catch it whilst sat.

When seated, players will again throw the ball high in the air but this time they will stand up quickly and catch it while stood. This continues in the same way.

Players should perform 2 sets of 10 catches.

Coaching points

Try to move more quickly as the drill goes on. Players can make it more difficult for themselves by throwing the ball lower than usual, giving themselves less time to sit/stand and be able to catch the ball.
