This technique is used to stop low balls from further distances.
When meeting the ball, the goalkeeper moves sideways down to the ball with one hand, arm and leg fully stretched.
The other hand reaches into the air for better balance while the other leg is bent like when jumping over a hurdle.
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.
