The drills in this session have been chosen to get your players creating defensive triangles and closing down the attacking dangers.
What's in the Session?
We start with a fun defensive warm up game of Castle Ball. Once everyone is fully warmed up it's time to practice your team's cover defence, with three practices to get your players running out to meet the attacker and back-tracking to cover the space.
Once your defence are confident with sliding and covering one another we put their skills to the test with a final conditioned game of 6v6, just outside your team's goal area line - will your defence be able to cope with the pressure and implement the 3:2:1 system?
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.
