Handball: Decision passing - Defenders move

Thank you Sportplan. The drills and videos have been extremely beneficial...

Dumitru

DESCRIPTION

Based on the defender's movement player 4 should decide whether to pass to player 6, player 5 or not pass at all and take the shot on themselves.

Blue player 1 starts with the ball and moves to make their defender follow them out of position, once they've dragged them outside they pass to player 2 who does the same and then passes to player 3 who passes to player 4.

At this stage the game becomes 'live'. Blue 6 is stood between the two defenders and blue 5 is ready to make a run down the outside.

Depending on the decisions made by the defence player 4 can pass early to player 6, throw the ball into the path of player 5 or simply go it alone and take the shot on themselves.

COACHING POINTS

Give all your players a chance to be the decision maker (blue 4).

If the ball is intercepted the defenders should play the ball out to the half way line before setting up and restarting this drill.

Quick passing and shooting:

Five players from the attacking team position themselves around the goal area line so that they stretch the defenders. Each of them should be man-marked from a distance by the five white players.

Starting with the ball on the left side of the court players pass to their right, trying to draw the defender to be drawn out of position before passing the ball on again.

Blue players 6 should set up a back screen in front of the fourth defender.

Once the ball reaches player 4 they should dribble forwards and wait and see if defender 4 comes towards them - if the defender stands still, marking blue 6, then blue 4 should shoot on goal. If the defender moves forwards then they should pass to player 6 for them to shoot instead.

attacking in powerplay situations

Pave the way through:

Blue players 3 and 6 position themselves between two defenders to make it difficult for them to be picked up.

The ball starts with blue player 1 who passes the ball outside the circle until it reaches player 4.

Once blue player 4 has the ball attacking player number 6 should move to set up a front screen, blocking white player 3's movement.

This then paves the way for blue player 3 to run into the gap and receive the pass from player 4 to have a shot on goal.

attacking in powerplay situations

attacking in powerplay situations:

B6 screens W3.
Pass B1 (who goes and screens W5)- pass B4-B3 who runs into the gap between the screening players B6 and B1 and throws at the goal.

attacking in powerplay situations

attack : free throws:

Pass B3-B2 who runs forward on full speed.

B3 pretends he wants to screen for B2.
B4 pretends he screens for B2, but screens W3.

W4 will probably attack B2.
B2 passes to B5 who runs straight forward to W5.

Meanwhile B3 came round the screening B4, receives the pass from B5 and throws at the goal.
