Set up two circles of cones across the width of the court.
Players run one at a time around the cones in a figure of 8 as quickly as possible. You can split your players into two groups in both halves of the court and run this exercise as a relay race - the first team to complete the figure of 8 running wins the race!
You can perform this exercise with and without the ball.
Moving with ball practices:
Dribble dribble with only their right hand, then their left hand
Dribble with alternating hands in a left-right-left-right pattern
Throw the ball in the air, let it bounce once and catch it...
Run around the cones while circling the ball around your waist
After running around the cones players pass the ball to the next player for them to continue running.
Wing players operate in the most demanding shooting position on a handball court, where acute angles and a close goalkeeper make finishing a specialist skill. This article breaks down the technique, decision-making, and training progressions that coaches need to develop elite wing finishing.
The transition from attack to defence is the most vulnerable moment in handball. This article examines the 3-second recovery principle, the specific roles players must adopt during transition, and the training scenarios that build a team's ability to recover defensive shape under pressure.
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.
