Handballexercises for u22
2 and 2 and 3 balls per group
- Start with 3 balls per group. 1 ball on the ground and played back and forth with the feet, while the other 2 are passed back and forth. Never hold the balls in hands for more than 1 second, always pass back immediately. Don't be nice to your partner, challenge them.
- Then have 2 balls, with 1 player holding the ball in hand. Throw the ball up and while it's in the air, pass the other ball back and forth once. Make it harder by trying to pass 2, then 3, then 4, then 5 times while the ball is in the air.
- 2 balls per group - 1 player starts with both balls. Throw 1 high ball and during that time, quickly pass the other ball. The second ball should be caught before the high ball is caught. Add the challenge of passing the quick ball back.
- 3 balls per group - 1 player starts with all the balls. Throw them in an arc, one by one. All 3 balls should be in the air at the same time and then caught by the receiver.
The players form a line at one end of the court.
- The 2nd player on the line passes the ball to the coach who will be between the centre of the court and the 12 meters.
- The 1st player on the line runs as soon as the pass is made.
- The coach will then pass the ball to the front of the 1st player who is running towards the opposite goal to receive the ball.
- The pass will not be towards the player's hands, but rather to a step in front of where they are, so they continue accelerating.
- This can be done with groups of 5 up to 9.
- Let's take a group of 7
- Delineate an area where 4 people can stand and move around with a bit (not too much) room. Place 3 defenders inside, plus 1 line/pivot.
- The remaining 3 attackers will pass the ball around outside the area, with no bounce, and they score a point by either:
- Passing the ball effectively to the pivot
- Placing the ball inside the area without being touched by a defender
- The attackers can move freely, but limited to the 3 steps, 3 seconds with ball in hand, and no bounce.
- If these rules are broken, they become the defenders.
This can be done with groups of 3 to 7 - odd numbers ideally.
- Let's assume a group of 5 players.
- We'll have 3 attackers and 2 defenders.
- The 3 attackers will have a delimited running corridor in a straight line and they will have to pass the ball from one to the others while the 2 defenders will have to try and intercept the passes. The defenders have freedom of movement.
- The exercise can evolve in the types of passes in order to foster movement without the ball.
- First all types of pass, then no lob passes, then only bounce passes.
If the defenders intercept the pass, they continue the exercise acting as the attacking players in numerical inferiority. The 3 attacking players now have no restriction of movement.
This is to be done slowly at first, not as a fast break, to instill the idea of moving without the ball first. The speed can be adapted as the exercise goes on.
- Make 4 compartments (size depends on the size of the team)
- Everyone starts tipping in box 1
- If you tip the ball away from someone else, you may move up one square.
- Winner is the first to leave the last box
- Little 8 is the change of circle with the corner players.
- Middle build-up indicates which system is started. At small 8 the corners and circle start running;
- The right corner takes the initiative and runs towards the position of the circle (can be with or without ball!), the circle runs towards the corner and perhaps takes a defender with it. This may free up the circle which can be played through the build-up. If not, the substitute moves on to the other corner, until either a goal is scored or everyone is back in his/her own place.
- Important is watching each other's timing, not getting in each other's way and correct passing with bounce by the builder.
- Practice start with passive defenders, then active
Divide team into 3 teams.
- Team 1 starts defending
- Team 2 starts attacking from the middle
- Team 3 gets ready on the middle line with ball
Once completed, team 2 starts defending and the 3rd team starts attacking from the middle.
- Team 1 takes the ball and gets ready on the middle line, etc.
The goal is to switch quickly from attacking to defending.
- Burpee (lie on stomach, press up, place hands on floor while "jumping" feet between hands, then explosively jump up with arms raised)
- Abdominal muscle crunches
- Plank from hands to elbow
- Lunges
- Penguin; lie on back, legs bent with hands left/right ankle tapping.
- Squat
All positions at least occupied by 1 player with ball
On follow order is completed:
On follow order is completed:
- Right corner: round off with lop
- Right formation: round off with underhand shot (possibly 2 boxes with mat to create opening)
- Center formation: round off with jump shot over an F goal/mat (this is at 9 m)
- Left formation: round off with a dummy around the post
- Left corner: free choice of rounding
- Circle runner: turn and jump with 2 legs at the same time
Having rounded off choose another position
Goalkeeper gets a vest which he/she throws up, holds up ball and must catch the vest before it hits the ground. (or holds balloon in the air during exercise) Pay attention to goalkeeper posture (hands high, knees bent)

- Middle build-up indicates moment and system starts at Left corner
- Right corner goes deep
- Right corner takes up its position more to the right and applies pressure
- Left corner puts pressure
- Left corner puts pressure and walks backwards
- Center structure puts pressure on the left with the aim of taking center defender with it and then barricading/holding it with it
- Circle runner secures circle defender
- Left post runs behind Center post and receives the ball
Note: Right corner and Right build-up also put pressure to the right to keep defender with them so that Left build-up gets space
- 2 a 3 hunters throwing off players with a soft ball
- Ratio; 1 to 5.
- Head is sacred and may not be touched and play with handball rules.
- If you are thrown off you sit on the bench.
- The 2 or 3 players who are thrown off first become the hunter in the next game.
Preparation
- Make groups of 3
- Mark off space of 2 by 4 meters.
Exercise
- Player 1 has the ball and stands on one side of the 'field'.
- Goal is to give the ball to the 2nd player by running and turning with the ball around the defender (rugby style)
- The defender continues to defend the attacker frontally and gives counter pressure.
Coaching
- On the front foot, give pressure frontally and not through the side
