Handball: Big Ball Teamwork

This is the best handball site I have visited.

Joelma

DESCRIPTION

A big ball is transported to the other side of the pitch by the whole team.

COACHING POINTS

Work together!
Say nothing, and let players fuind out they have to work together. Lack of cooperation makes the transport go wrong.
If this is the case- ask players how to solve the problem.

Cross the line:

In the goal area players are static and dribbling the ball on the spot.

When the trainer blows their whistle the players must try to dribble the ball across a certain line without being tackled.

Defenders must try to prevent players from getting past them.

dribbling/defence of dribbling

Centerball - Bench game:

To set this game up you need a gymnastics bench at each side of the half court and two back to back benches (or a large gymnastics box if available) laying flat inside the middle of the area.

In this middle area there should be a white player defending their side of the bench and a blue player defending their side.

The white team tries to score by hitting the ball on the blue's side of the bench and the white side tries to score on the blue's side of the central bench.

After every failed attempt to score the team who made the shot must touch one of the benches on either side of the area.

passing/intercepting + finding space and defending

Change Places:

Number one hits the balloon up, calls out the number of another player who must come and play the balloon high, calling out another number etc.
The player who hits the balloon must change places with the player whose name he called out.
