Handball drills

Preparatory practice and mental toughness training:

  • Defenders in left or right corner, 1 active defender.
  • Attacker starts to the middle between the pawns and then sprints to the circle.
  • Defender anticipates.
  • At the 3rd run, the attacker tries to pass between the pawns without being tapped.
  • Continuous switching between attacker and defender, both left and right.
  • Attention to anticipation, keeping distance, footwork, mental toughness so don't give up!

drawing Passing as a warm-up in attack
Setup:
  • In pairs, place the players in a row facing the wall.
  • Per pair 1 tennis ball.
Exercise:
  • Player 1 stands closest to the wall and begins the exercise by throwing the ball against the wall.
  • Player 2 catches the ball.
  • Player 1 meanwhile runs back through the right side and then catches the ball that player 2 just threw against the wall.
  • Repeat at least 20 times.
  • Make the exercise more difficult by having the ball caught in a hat.
Circle player indicates where he/she wants the ball by raising his/her hand.

Relay
  • Over the benches with 2 legs
  • Backwards backwards
  • Slide from pawn to pawn
  • Backwards backwards
  • Over the mats head roll
  • Sprint to the finish line
drawing Relay
  • Divide the group into two teams
  • Team A on one side and Team B on the other side
  • At the teams try to throw on the yoga ball
  • If the yoga ball hits the bench of one team, the other team has won.
drawing Aiming for yoga ball
  • You make 2 pairs
  • 1 player stands without ball on the circle
  • 1 player stands with ball on the 9 meter line

  • On sign of trainer, the one with ball sprints forward and backward to the circle.
  • Arriving at the 9 meter line, the player with ball starts up and tries to pass.
  • The player without ball defends firmly.
  • You rotate through so that everyone attacks and defends once.

drawing attack-defense at high tempo
Ball moves from left to right and back again as the group moves on 1 line to the other side of the field.

Additional extension of this exercise:
  • Trainer names a player.
  • Player calls left or right player by name and switches positions. Fellow player crosses behind.
  • Both with and without ball.
The players learn in this way to coach each other, to see each other and not only to pay attention to the ball. Can be used as warming up as well as coaching training.
drawing Warming up Passing
  • From each position is shot, 2 rounds. So 12 times no circle.
  • The goalkeeper has won if she stops 6 or more balls.
drawing goalie vs players
Two teams of maximum 4 people, 1 ball.
On both sides 2 people in the court, other people behind the back line.

Goal:
score in 1x in the other court (inside the lines).

Rules:
Start with simple underhand service
We play underhand tennis, so in 1x over the net.
Difficult ball may bounce 1x, but then the ball must be returned with : 1 hand, a foot, or the head.

Mistake made => out of the court, to the back line, new player takes over.

Sprint around the pawns, always via the middle pawn.

there is 1 ticker and the rest have to try to grab the stretcher and eventually the tennis ball along 2 sides of the square if the ticker ticks you you have to put the stretcher back and try again
- you can also make it increasingly difficult or easier
e.g.: the one who is tapped out of game or make bigger square
