Moving with the ball |
in more ways than one

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.
Moving with the ball, also known as dribbling, is how a player moves with the ball when in their possession using a hockey stick.
The dribbling drills and videos below will sharpen your players' stickwork and dribbling skills on both the forehand and reverse stick before moving them on to advanced techniques including the Indian dribble (using the stick to control both sides of the ball) and feinting / moving their body (swerving) to trick opponents into thinking they are going one way before moving in the opposite direction.
