Co-operation in all positions of the court is important, but nowhere is it more important than in your team's defensive third.
In this handball coaching plan we focus on your back players, making sure defenders are communicating and working together to defend your goal and keep the opposition's attackers at bay! When the opposition's wing players are running at speed and switching positions, you want to make sure your defenders are able to communicate, to avoid being pulled out of position.
What's in the session?
To make sure your players are up to the challenge we kick things off with a speed passing warm up before then focusing on their defending technique. Once your players are in the right 1v1 defensive frame of mind, we then progress onto the second part of the session, which works on 2v2 defending and marking the space.

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.
