Players dribble forward with the ball and must feint to get past the defender and throw at the goal.
Jump shot (technique):
Bring up the ball to shoulder height and whilst the body is in the air the hip should go backward together with the throwing arm.
Pull up other leg until upper leg is horizontal. Screw back from the hip and the arm should follow this movement explosively to the front, finishing with the arm pointing in the direction where the ball should go.
Land on the same leg as you jumped off.
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.
