Handball drill: specialist shots
Suitable for the following techniques: attack ball control
Specialist shots
Setup:
- Put a pawn on the left and right of the goal area line.
Goal:
- Players must round from outside the pawn on goal. Shot angle can be made easier or more difficult by moving pawn.
Exercise:
- Row of players on left attack. Focal point on center.
- Left attack puts pressure, plays ball to middle, gets ball back and rounds.
- When one has been one goes on right attack, where the same thing is done.
- Important is that players jump well inside towards goal.
Variations:
- Idem 1, but now with starting from the middle.
- The ball is now played to the trainer in front of them.
- This one also plays the ball back.
- Alternate left and right.
- Same as 2, but now also place a pawn where the players must pass inside.
- This causes the player to arrive at the 2nd pawn in a nasty way -in the previous exercise they will have run a nice little arc to avoid this-, so they end up having to turn more in their shot to still get towards goal.
- A distance shot from the middle can also be inserted throughout to train this as well.
