Training of defensive and semi-offensive cooperative defense strategies for handball teams
After 20 seconds, the coach whistles again. All attacking players who managed to pick up the rope and all defending players who successfully defended the rope (rope is still on the floor) get a point.
- Now switch the tasks (attacking/defending player) in each field.
- After the second round, one player per field moves to the next field clockwise and the course starts over with new pairs.
- Who has scored highest in the end?
No. 2: Goalkeeper warm-up shooting with defense legwork
Difficulty level:
Minimum number of players: 8
Equipment required: Sufficient number of handballs
Setting:
- Two players start as the defending players, the other players stand at the 9-meter line, each holding a handball.
Course:
-
starts on the left wing position, makes a step forward and touches the ball held by , quickly moves back to the 6-meter line, makes a step forward again and touches the ball held by , etc. (A).-
starts the course a bit delayed on the right side (B).- A soon as
has touched the ball, approaches the goal and shoots at the left side of the goal (C).- Afterwards,
has touched the ball.- The other players subsequently shoot at the left and right side of the goal alternately (E) and as instructed (top, bottom, middle).
- As soon as
has touched each handball, he receives a pass from the coach (F) and also shoots at the left side of the goal (H); receives another pass from the coach (G) and shoots at the right side of the goal and as instructed (J).Change the defending players for the next shooting round.
Make sure that the defending players move back to the 6-meter line after they touched the ball and before they start running towards the next ball.
The shooting players should try to create a rhythm for the goalkeeper and make sure that he is able to reach and save the shots. They probably must delay their action a bit after the defending player has touched the respective handball.
No. 3: Actively stepping forward towards the ball holder 3-on-4
Difficulty level:
Minimum number of players: 2
Equipment required: 9 cones, 1 handball
Setting:
- Put four cone goals diagonally in the corners and one cone into the center of a suitable playing field (see figure).
Course:
-
steps forward actively into his movement path (B) and slightly pushes him back.-
passes to steps forward into the movement path of (E) and slightly pushes him back.-
(G), who makes a piston movement towards the gap between the cones. (H) and slightly pushes him back.- In the meantime,
has moved back and touched the cone in the center (F). steps forward into the movement path of (K), etc.Variant:
- Allow return passes. The three defending players must clearly agree upon who is in charge of the respective attacking payer.
The players who do the piston movement must give the defending players sufficient time to get into physical contact and then play a quick pass into the running path of the next teammate.
The defending players should step forward quickly and then move back towards the cone in the center immediately.
