Handball drill: cover in a 6-0

In this exercise, we look at how the coverage should be in a 6-0 variant, and who should be in touch when.This is mainly a theoretical exercise, show the different situations in slow-motion. Points of attention are;

• Let the players think for themselves what they have to do in different situations!
• Communication in (especially) the central block is important!
• Corners should not be too offensive, unless they actually have the ball

Questions you can ask your players;

• What happens when the circle runner changes position?
• What happens when a corner passes?
• What happens when the opponent plays a rehearsed attack?
• When do you as LO or RO have to help?
• When do you as LO or RO have to step out?
• How far should you step out?
