Handball: warming-up : Cross-over pass and follow

Excellent site. Very concise and easy to use. I'll definitely be emailing...

David, Handball Coach

DESCRIPTION

Players stand in groups behind different cones.

Players must pass the ball to the player opposite them and then follow their pass behind the player on the opposite side.

Players can use a variation of passes:

Center shot, jump shot (3,2,1 step rhythm), push pass, bounce pass, double handed pass, rolled pass, pass using your weaker hand etc.

COACHING POINTS

Warming up with the ball is more interesting than without. Although this is a defending session, the attackers should not be forgotten. To train defenders, you still need attackers, and it is the same the other way round, be sure to remind players this.

PROGRESSION

Put a defender between every line of passing and running to make passing and running more difficult.

Every time a pass is stolen, the attacker and defender should change places.

warming-up : Diagona Pass and Follow:

Simple pass and follow drill. Starting with two players on the first cone and then one player on every other cone.

The first player throws the ball to player two and then immediately sprints to follow their pass. Player 2 catches the ball and then turns and throws the player 3 before then also following their pass.

This pattern continues until the player on the final cone receives the ball. At this point they dribble back to the start cone and the drills starts again.

warming-up : Give and Go snake run passing:

The first player waiting in line passes to the first player on the cone and immediately follows their pass and runs behind that player to receive the return pass.

Once they have the ball in hand again they pass the ball to the next player and drive behind them to loop in front of them and receive the ball again.

Once the player reaches the end of the course they dribble the ball to the corner and then sprint around the court back to the end of the line with the ball in hand.
