Handball drills for technique attack / offense

  • Limited space at the circle.
  • 1 v 1.
  • Try to get past the defender, moving quickly and turning away. Possibly pass and feint movement.
  • Explain what is and is not allowed in terms of defense.
    • Hands against shoulders. Not from the side.
    • Do not hold arms.
    • Do not obstruct a broken player.
In F use a small goal.
  • 1 against 1
  • Both run 1 time from cone to cone
  • The attacker is played the ball by the trainer
  • The attacker tries to pass the defender in the square and score on goal
  • The defender tries to stop the attacker correctly
drawing 1 vs.
  • Left or right buildup plays center to center.
  • This one starts a dribble in to one side.
  • The L/R builder runs in behind.
  • The L/R builder receives the ball.
  • The L/R builder rounds.
drawing Swap left/right build-up with center build-up
Setup:
  • Put a pawn on the left and right of the goal area line.
Goal:
  • Players must round from outside the pawn on goal. Shot angle can be made easier or more difficult by moving pawn.
Exercise:
  • Row of players on left attack. Focal point on center.
  • Left attack puts pressure, plays ball to middle, gets ball back and rounds.
  • When one has been one goes on right attack, where the same thing is done.
  • Important is that players jump well inside towards goal.
Variations:
  • Idem 1, but now with starting from the middle.
    • The ball is now played to the trainer in front of them.
    • This one also plays the ball back.
    • Alternate left and right.
  • Same as 2, but now also place a pawn where the players must pass inside.
    • This causes the player to arrive at the 2nd pawn in a nasty way -in the previous exercise they will have run a nice little arc to avoid this-, so they end up having to turn more in their shot to still get towards goal.
    • A distance shot from the middle can also be inserted throughout to train this as well.
  • Mo plays Lo.
  • Puts barrage Rh.
  • Lo threatens to goal.
  • Plays to Ro.
  • Ro has to tie.
  • Plays oncoming corner between 1 and 2.
drawing Change
  • Duos on the 6 meters facing each other.
  • Ball in the middle.
  • After 'go' run whoever has the ball first.
  • Passes and completes.
  • Can also be done with variations such as Sidestep.
  • 1 attacker throws on goal
  • 2nd attacker goes out already
  • Goalkeeper grabs the ball as quickly as possible
  • Defender closest to the substitution area steps out
  • Attacker steps in
  • Goalkeeper passes to attacker on line / or stepping in attacker at center
  • On the opposite side, defenders come in as quickly as possible
  • Pass the game back and forth
How do you defend this?

  • Runner! Can intercept - can get to ball, not just receiver
  • Runner starts in during completion
  • 1 player at bin position.
  • Rest in the corners.
  • 1 ball in each corner and reserve.
  • Left runs on the 6 meter line.
  • Right runs on the 9 meter line.
  • Pass to nearest bin.
  • Passer gets ball back from next bin.
  • Pass through to corner
drawing Ball catching in run
  • 5 against 5
  • 1 circle player with attackers
  • defenders 'hold' the circle player
  • attackers put a lot of pressure to reach the circle player
  • curve balls / via ground etc. Let them try out a lot.
  • Narrow space 3 or 4 meters mark between 6 and 12 meters
  • 2 defenders with vests stand at the 9 meter mark
  • 2 attackers with ball come in pass and go back, and then attack begins.
  • Make sure defenders make contact, right shoulder and left first hand over ball.
  • Attackers must constantly break free and distance themselves.
  • Try passing moves.
  • Can be done at the circle in 2, 4 and even 6 stations.
