Handball: Stop and Throw a Fast Break

This is the best handball site I have visited.

DESCRIPTION

Goalkeeper stands on the goal line.

A player throws two balls at the goal, which the goalkeeper tries to stop. He then sprints forward, touches the ball of the blue player, who throws it high over the goalkeeper's head into the goal.

When the goalkeeper has touched the ball he jogs back to save the lobbed shot before it crosses the goal line.

Once under control of the ball, he throws a fast break pass to one of the players half way up the court.

COACHING POINTS

Goalkeeper should perform 2 series of 8 balls.

OFTEN USED WITH...

Goal throws to the upfield player:

Attacking player 1 runs with the ball to the outside of the 9m semi-circle and throws at the goal. The defender must only obstruct the shot, not make a tackle, to put the attacker under pressure.

The goalkeeper must then get the ball under control and pass past the obstructing defenders to the breaking defender who has just made the run.

The session then continues on the other side of the court.

From back to Front!:

Two attacking players stand on either side of the goal area line and take it in turns to have gentle shots on goal (making it easy for the keeper to gather the ball).

Once the keeper has stopped the shot they should pass the ball up the centre of the court into the path of the red player in front of them.

Red players should aim to receive the ball on the move and then sprint forwards, dribbling the ballÂ with them, to the cone on the Centre line.
