Handball drills
- You make 2 groups.
- 1 group has a vest.
- The groups must have an equal number.
- The children take turns standing in a circle. (So someone with a vest stands next to someone without vest).
- There are 2 balls and of each group 1 person has the ball (they face each other).
- You throw the ball as fast as possible to someone of your own group and try to catch the ball of the other group.
- If the ball falls, pick it up as quickly as possible and continue.
- Who will be first to catch the ball from the other team?
- If this goes well they all take 3 steps back and we increase the distance.
- All players are spread over the playing area.
- One player starts as the "hunter" and one player as the "prey".
- The "hunter" tries to catch the "prey".
- The "prey" can escape by running away or lying down next to another player.
- This player now becomes the "hunter" and the old "hunter" becomes the "prey".
- Pairs stand in pairs in a large circle.
- In the middle are (number of pairs - 2) balls.
- On a signal the players start sprinting on the outside (remember to indicate the direction).
- When the player is back with his/her partner, she/he crawls between his/her legs and takes a ball from the middle.
- Those who have not conquered the ball must do some push-ups or something similar.
- Then they change places and start the game again.
- Variations:
- Sprinting with side steps
- Sprint backwards
- Sprint in different directions
- Lateral sliding passes to the left and right
- 2 teams of 5 - 6 players.
- The exercise is performed as a relay race.
- The team runs a slalom around the pylons.
- The point from which the throw must be made is at the pylon at the free throw line.
- The moment the player finishes, the next player starts.
- Variations:
- The whole round is dribbled
- Each player makes 3 rounds:
- The first round the ball is carried between the pylons and dribbled along the long side
- The last round is the whole round dribbled.
- Carry the ball between the pylons and dribble the rest of the way
- All players stand in a circle.
