Handball: train plays in a targeted manner

A handball team can only be successful if, in addition to endurance, strength and throwing technique, they also incorporate tactical exercises into their training plan. Here you can read how you can train the most important handball moves in a targeted manner.

Important Hanball moves: this is how you train the counter-stroke

The fast-paced counter-attack is one of the most important handball moves. The ball is quickly played forward after an unsuccessful attack by the opposing team. Then there is either a passing game or the immediate goal throw.

• In training, you can practice the counter-tempo in a targeted manner until you have mastered the individual technical processes perfectly. You need a player to do this. Usually this is your team's goalkeeper.
• In addition, a teammate should run parallel to you during this tactical exercise, so that you can practice the exact passing game at the same time on this Hanball move.

• When you are around the center line, you should make eye contact with your opponent.
• This one will match you the ball. It is important that you do not slow down while doing this. This is the only way to achieve an effective counter-attack that allows you to throw a goal unhindered, as your opponent does not have time to defend himself.
• If you have caught the ball, you should pass it to your teammate who ran along on the other side of the field.
• Then your teammate throws you the ball again. In the meantime, you can change your running route, for example by swapping positions with your teammate. Through this cross run, opponents who may have run along can be played out in the real game.

If you train the counter-tempo on a regular basis, you will soon be able to carry out the individual processes without thinking twice and keep increasing your pace in the process.

Fooling: This is how you fool the defense at the Hanball

In order to get the opportunity to throw a goal in front of the opponent's goal, you have to deceive the opponent and pull past him. You can also play this handball move, like most other handball moves, in the training practice well.

• Have a teammate throw you the ball. There is a player in front of you. You can also replace this with a flag during training.
• When you have safely caught the ball, jump into what is known as the zero step. You touch the ground with both feet at the same time. This step is so named because it does not count towards the three steps that you are only allowed to take in handball when you are in possession of the ball.
• Now you are only indicating a movement to the right with your body. You can also take a step to the right. This fake movement induces your opponent in the game to follow your movement because he wants to prevent you from breaking through the defense.
• However, instead of passing your opponent on the right, take two steps to the left and throw at the goal. Your defender can't count on this because he thinks you are trying to pull past him on the left.

This exercise assumes a coordinated, fluid sequence of movements that you need to train. Faking is one of the most important tactical elements in handball.
