Handball drills
This can make use of an existing outline of a badminton field's lines, or be created with cones.
This serves 3 purposes:
This serves 3 purposes:
- Passing
- Moving to receive the ball
- Defense
- You will need 3 pairs of players.
- Two pairs on opposite ends of the delimited area trying to pass the ball to each other, and one pair in the middle intercepting.
- The pairs on each end, can not pass to their partner, they have to pass to the other pair at the other side of the court.
- They can not pass the centre point.
- The defending pair will either try to touch the person with the ball, or to intercept the pass.
- Once the defending team succeeds in one of these, then they swap.
- If the pass is out of bounds, they also swap.
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.
- Make 6 or 8 columns of players (at least 2 in each column).
- They will have 2 balls in play, with some time distance. (wait until the first ball reaches the middle point and then the second ball starts being passed around)
- The players will have to pass the ball and run to the column they just passed the ball to.
- They will have to be running when they pass the ball, and change passes after a while (normal, bounce, side, underarm,...)
Materials:
- use 2-3 soft balls (f-youth foam ball)
Explanation:
- Set out a field adapted to the number of players.
- If you have a ball try to throw others off.
- If you are hit you stand in the goal.
- If someone catches the ball then everyone is free again.
- Last one remaining wins
Variation:
- do not dribble
- don't run
- throw with the wrong arm
- Make 4 compartments (size depends on the size of the team)
- Everyone starts tipping in box 1
- If you tip the ball away from someone else, you may move up one square.
- Winner is the first to leave the last box
- 2 a 3 hunters throwing off players with a soft ball
- Ratio; 1 to 5.
- Head is sacred and may not be touched and play with handball rules.
- If you are thrown off you sit on the bench.
- The 2 or 3 players who are thrown off first become the hunter in the next game.
Exercise 1
- ladder; 2 feet in each section
- step; with 2 feet on the step
Exercise 2
- Ladder: 2 feet in each section
- Step: with 2 feet on and off
Exercise 3
- Ladder:
- left foot in a compartment
- right foot wide next to ladder and with slightly bent knee balance for a moment.
- left foot in next compartment and exchange with right foot
- left foot wide next to ladder and keep balance with slightly flexed knee
Step: sideways left/right between the step
Exercise 3
- Ladder:
- left foot in compartment (on forefoot!)
- touch right foot outside ladder ground and place in next section (rotating movement with body)
- then tap left foot outside ladder ground and place in next section
step; limp with 2 feet on the step
Exercise 4
- start next to ladder with toes towards ladder
- step with both feet in first section and step sideways to next section.
- then backwards again next to the ladder
- step next to ladder on side for next section and step forward again with both feet in section
Step; limp with 1 foot on step
Repeat exercise at least twice
Goal is to put 3 in a row.
- Make 2 teams
- From each team, 1 player runs with a colored hat and places it in a hoop
- When the first player returns the 2nd player of the team starts, then the 3rd.
- When there is 1 hat of each color the 4th player may move a colored hat to get 3 in a row.
- In pairs facing each other.
- Defend by walking toward each other and:
- bringing hands to shoulder height
- tapping each other in the air with the hands - jumping
- touching each other in the air with the chest
- stopping each other with the hand in the side
Exercise 2:
- 3 defenders: left builder, left player, right builder.
- 2 attackers at each position.
- The ball leaves on the corner running in, passes to the Left builder.
- This Left builder passes pass to Center player.
- Defenders go out to attacker and shuffle back off to place.
- Attackers run backwards and may not stand still.
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
- 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.
- Minigoal with pawn in the middle or corners
- Each player a ball
- Flat markers on the ground: 0-pass - left - right - left
- Player stands slightly in front of the markers
- Throws ball to trainer
- Player jumps 0-pass and catches ball -eventually at the same time
- Then run and shoot at goal
