Handball drills

  • All players divide into the corners and buildup positions.
  • There are 2 defenders, 1x LO and 1x RO. They defend first passively and later actively.
  • The left builder:
    • Plays the ball to the corner.
    • Starts in and gets it played back.
    • Plays through to the middle at pace.
    • Runs diagonally back to the sideline.
    • Starts in and makes a passing move past the defender.
    • The same happens on the right side.
  • The left builds up:
    • Plays to the corner.
    • Gets it back and plays through to the middle.
    • Middle starts up as does the builder.
    • Corner starts in and gets the ball (with or without bounce).
    • Defender defends passively.
    • Corner tries to pass.
    • Same on the other side.
  • The left builder:
    • Plays ball to the middle.
    • Gets it back and plays to the corner.
    • Corner starts putting pressure and so does the builder.
    • Middle finishes by jump shot or passing move.
    • Defender is active right away. If ball goes through LO, LO defender is active, and vice versa.

Put the players in a row next to each other.
About 1 meter in front of them on the ground is a tennis ball.

  • Have them put their feet slightly apart.
  • Quickly run -dribble- in place.
At the trainer's instruction they do while dribbling:
  • Hands on knees.
  • Hands on toes.
  • Hands on shoulders.
  • Hands forward.
  • Hands in the air.
  • When the trainer calls Ball!, they grab the ball as fast as they can.

  • Repeat and throw the commands interchangeably for variety.
  • Make 2 rows facing each other.
  • Between the 2 rows there is a ball.
  • Players start dribbling at high speed.
  • On signal trainer they shift to the left or right.
  • When "ball" is called, they grab the ball and sprint to the sideline.
  • The one without the ball tries to intercept.
drawing Hat shifting
  • Offset from position.
  • Ball to 1 of the builders; only to corner/circle if they are completely free and can score goal.
  • Circle to the non-ball side.
  • Likely MA following up is caught early on by the MV=> outside builders should pressure from outside to inside. Opposite buildup, corner, circle start up.
  • When build-up starts MA must run to that position.
  • See if they can play variation; cross, long change, corner behind build-up and so on.
drawing Fast attack
  • Players divide into left - and right corner with ball
  • 2 goalkeepers. 1 goalkeeper will play on - half break
  • Left starts, sprint to center, get ball and close 9 yards free
  • Player who threw becomes blocker for the next player coming from the right
  • This player to the shot becomes the blocker for the next player
  • Until everyone has had their turn. Then switch sides. Goalkeeper also changes
