Players take it in turn to run and squeeze through the small openings between the blue players, being strong to drive through the blocking man.
Blue players must keep their arms down when blocking the running man and only use their core strength to prevent the man running through (no shoulder barges).
Look for strong, driving play. The running players should have their arms slightly bent to brace for impact
Handball demands explosive power, repeated sprint ability, and the strength to compete physically for 60 minutes. Sport-specific conditioning develops the athletic qualities that underpin elite performance.
Handball matches are won and lost in critical moments. Mental toughness determines who executes under pressure, who recovers from setbacks, and who maintains concentration throughout 60 intense minutes.
Deception is the great equaliser in handball. Smaller, less powerful players can beat defenders through feints and misdirection. Mastering these skills creates breakthrough opportunities against even the most organised defences.
