Handball drills

Choose a technique or a level to list all drills.
This is a resistance and mental strength exercise.
- Each player goes to their position. They will have to take 3 - 5 shots in a row, running back to the position as soon as they shoot. For every two shots, they will have to change the third shot.
- The objective, more than building resistance, is to build mental strength to make the body go forward when we're tired.
- This will be repeated several times.
- The first couple of times the players won't be tired, but after the third or fourth repetition of the series of shots in a row, then they will.
- There can also be one player (pivot for example) blocking shots (not 100% defense, just 30%)
- If the overall team scores more than 50% than the keeper does 20 push ups, 20 sit ups, and 20 squats.
- If the team scores less than, then the team does it.
- For the physical condition this is a good exercise:
- The group has to stand in a row and you let them start dribbling easily.
- As soon as the trainer blows the whistle, the last one of the row should run forwards.
- You do this until everyone has been last in line and then you let them run a round relaxed
- 30 sec running in place as fast as possible, using your arms to set the pace
- 30 sec jumping jacks
- 30 sec squats
- 30 sec high knee running in place
- 30 sec left leg hopping left and right
- 30 sec right leg hopping left and right
- 30 sec frog jumps straight up with your back when squatting and jumping as high as possible when landing try to stay balanced without putting your hands on the ground.
- 30 sec plank
- divide players among the pawns
- player 1 runs straight ahead but plays the ball off to the right collapsing player 2
- player 2 also runs straight ahead and plays the ball off to the right
- make it more difficult by playing 2 balls at the same time (start opposite each other)
- change direction during the exercise
- pass with a bounce
At the back line, place a bin of balls.
- The players start with a ball in their hand and run to the two hats closest to the net.
- They stand still between the hats and try to throw the ball into the bucket from there.
- Successful. Then they run back to the ball pit. Grab a new ball and run to the two hats in the middle to throw the ball into the bucket again from there.
- Failed. Then they run back to the ball pit. New ball and try again on that level.
- The one who completes the three levels first wins.
- Make 2 teams of 2 people
- 1 trainer in the middle who passes the ball.
- 2 players run to the sideline and become defenders.
- The other 2 run at the pawn and receive the ball and go out on the break.
