This handball plan looks at the Give and Go - also known as a one-two or double-pass - and how it can give your players the attacking edge in their next game!
When should you use the Give and Go?
Use the give and go when playing against a strong defence which plays a high line to try and force your team to take pot shots from far out, predominantly a 5:1 or 3:2:1 defence system. Playing the ball into another player allows the runner to move into a better position to receive the ball back and make a shot on goal.
Sounds simple, and it is.
With more experienced players you can progress the skill. If you add in a few fakes or dummy passes it can become an entirely different beast - helping your players to continue their looped runs towards the goal unchallenged and create a golden shooting opportunity!
Use this session with your players today, so that this passing technique can become second nature!

The transition from attack to defence is the most vulnerable moment in handball. This article examines the 3-second recovery principle, the specific roles players must adopt during transition, and the training scenarios that build a team's ability to recover defensive shape under pressure.
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.
