Handball drills for technique defense
- If the opponent likes to make use of the quick counter attack, this might help
- The team is on the attack.
- Then the coach calls a player aside for so-called "extra instructions".
- Then the corner player on the other side plays a bad pass in the direction of her own half, with the ball bouncing slowly towards the exchange zone.
- Of course the team must comment on this.
- While the team argues, the opponents counter-attack quickly.
- In the meantime, the coach has followed the ball and passes the position to the player.
- At the right moment, the coach says "NOW", the player turns round and plays a pass to one of the free team-mates, who has stayed behind.
- The following might be fun to try out.
- At a signal, all players except the ball carrier lie down on the ground.
- The defence will probably be a little surprised and lose interest, allowing the ball carrier to throw at the goal of the bewildered goalkeeper
- Please note, however, that this can be considered unsportsmanlike conduct and should therefore only be used during a practice match.
- Left player from the wall plays pass to MO, all players from the wall go backwards and place a bar on a corresponding defender.
- MO plays pass to in starting LH
- LH presses right next to HR and plays pass to in starting MO
- MO finishes
- A defender plays pass to KP.
- Immediately after the launch of the quick counter-attack, the defenders must try to stop the attack in a legal manner and must be back in time to defend
- The attackers must try to force a break-through.
- Left player (of the pair) plays pass to inside starting RO
- Right player places spar to the right of UL, RO puts pressure inside,
- Left player starts in between UL and HL,
- RO plays a pass to the starting left player
- Left player finishes
- Player in front of the wall starts in to the right to make the defense think,
- that that's where the action will take place,
- Left player out of the wall plays
- Pass to starting LH,
- All players from the wall go backwards and place a barrier on the corresponding defenders.
- LH takes advantage of the space and finishes
- The exercise starts when one of the attacking players plays the ball to KP.
- The defenders must try to stop the attack in a permissible way.
- The attackers must try to force a breakthrough.
- The players position themselves as indicated on the drawing.
- Just before taking the free throw LO starts in towards the centre, player (from wall) plays pass to MO, wall puts backward bar on defensive block.
- MO puts pressure to the left of UR and plays pass to RO who starts in.
- RO takes advantage of the space and finishes.
- The attacking players must try to outplay the defence on the other side
- Bring up the ball in 2 teams from your own 6 meter area.
- On your own half of the field you encounter 1 defender (stays only on this half of the field).
- On the other half of the field you encounter 2 defenders, but you also have a circle runner offensively.
- Red brings the ball up to the other side and tries to score.
- Pairs start from the back line.
- As soon as red makes a goal attempt, green may start to score a breakout at the opposite side.
- Red defends back.
- When green has taken a goal they have to go back to defend the other two red players.
- These have of course started at the moment that green has taken a goal attempt.
- This exercise can continue in a flowing way, because the players keep coming back to their own side.
- You can do this on time (which group has scored the most goals?) or you can choose who has scored the most goals.
- Blue crosses over,
- Red must try to get rid of the ball.
- Ball away? -> defend until everyone has lost their ball.
- Too easy?
- Extra defenders.
- 3 times a ticker,
- whoever catches the balls in the shortest time is the winner.
