Handball drill: find the gap: touchdown in the area.

Suitable for the following techniques: attack defense ball control

Find the gap: Touchdown in the area.

  • Depending on how many players there are you can use the full 6/9 meters or just a part of it.
  • The defending players will hold hands two by two (so if there are 6 players, there will be 3 groups of 2).
  • The attacking players will pass the ball around between themselves and around the area trying to "destabilise" the defence and find a gap so they can run in and touch down with the ball in the area.

  •  If the 2 groups of the defending players touch the attacker, the point does not count.
  •  if only 1 of the groups of the defending players touch the attacker, the point counts.
  •  If none of the groups of the defending players touch the attacker, it counts 2 points.

 The goal is to get to 8/10 points (depending on how many 2 points they score) and then swap.

  • If there's few players, shorten the court and if there's an uneven number, the defence stays with one less.

 Pay attention:
  • No lob passes
  • No more than 3 passes
  • No bounce (if possible)
