Number each player 1 - 3. The coach calls out one number. The blue team member run around the blue cone and becomes the keeper. The red team member runs around the red cone and becomes the attacker. Each player has 2 attempts, so can score a maximum of 6 goals. Then the teams switch round to see if they can beat the other teams score.
Goalkeepers stand in the middle of the goal. Try and use hands or feet to prevent the ball from going in the net.
Attackers pick up the ball, get into a central position infront of the goal and try to score a goal by throwing the ball into the goal.
Progression - Throw the ball within 3 seconds of picking it up.
- Progression: Only allowed three steps forward towards the goal before shooting.
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.
