This week's session aims to get your attackers improvising with their movements to develop a range of skills to get a shot away quickly.
The best attackers have a combination is speed, skill and guile to work the defender. When attacking, your players should have the confidence to believe they have control of the defender and this session helps produce that. Through a series of exercises designed to improve players subtle body movements and skills, they will soon be determining where the defender will go in order to get a quick shot away at goal.
What's in the Session?
To turn your players in to attacking machines, we look at how speed and hunger for the ball is important before moving onto fake runs, 1-v-1 feints and give-and-go?s with teammates before picking their corner in front of goal.
The session also puts the players into game-specific situations, replicating the type of pressure they will experience when coming up against the opposition. By the end of the session, the players will be breezing past their defenders to get a shot off every time!
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.
