Set pieces, sometimes referred to as set-plays in hockey, happen when restarting a game after a foul, the taking of a corner, penalty corner or hit in. A set piece can be a great place to launch an attack or score a goal; however, it is equally important your team know how to defend from a set-piece.
The corner and penalty set pieces outlined in the drills and videos below can be practised on the training ground and should be carefully planned to maximise its impact when used in your next game. It will often involve many members of your team, with each player having a specific role to play.
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.
