Defenders are place on the 9m line with one on one pivot behind on the edge of the D
Defence:
Needs to work harder to close the attackers down as there is more space behind them and cant afford to let the attack think.
Get to player with the ball quicker and attempt to wrap if not apply pressure and force the mistake.
Attacking:
The attackers need to use the space more to get closer to the goal to make the shot count.
Use of ball and movement is key
and NOT to just throw the ball over the defence to the pivot.
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.
