Handball: pass keeper

Never underestimate the power of a goalkeeper. Coach fast breaks starting from the back, leading from your goalkeeper.

Work from back to front and use your keeper to launch the fast break from the back! Seamlessly turning Defence into Attack!

B1 and B2 throw at the goal.
Goal keeper gets the ball and passes to B3 or B4.

The attackers line on both sides if the court, each with a ball, and take it in turns to run forwards, take the ball round the defender and have a half pace shot on goal (making it easy for the keeper to gather the ball).

As soon as the defender sees the keeper make the save they then make their move up field - presenting themselves as a passing option for the keeper.

The keeper should then release the ball into the path of the break-away defender who then moves up field to the centre line before then jogging to rejoin the back of the line to go again.

Attacking player 1 runs with the ball to the outside of the 9m semi-circle and throws at the goal. The defender must only obstruct the shot, not make a tackle, to put the attacker under pressure.

The goalkeeper must then get the ball under control and pass past the obstructing defenders to the breaking defender who has just made the run.

The session then continues on the other side of the court.
