Handball: Alternate Hands Dribbling & Shooting

Players A and B start at the same time. Player A dribbles with his right hand and player B with his left hand.

After meeting in the circle, they attack opposite goals. They increase speed after leaving the circle and protect their ball when getting between the two defenders (whose area is only the hoop) and shoot with a center shot or jump shot at the goal. They change positions after the shot.

In the goal area players are static and dribbling the ball on the spot.

When the trainer blows their whistle the players must try to dribble the ball across a certain line without being tackled.

Defenders must try to prevent players from getting past them.

One defender stands in the middle in between the goal area and the center line.

Their aim is to stop as many players as they can from dribbling from the goal area to the half way line but they can only tackle people as they run through the two cones.

Once a player is tackled they then also become a defender.

On the coach's call an attacker and a defender both set off and run around the cone.

The defender is trying to get around the cone quicker than the attacker so that they can get in front of them and hinder their shot (no tackling).

Once around the cone the attacker should aim to get a jump shot off on goal.

Variations:

• 3 step rythm (right handers : left,right,left and left handers : right,left,right)
• 2 step or even in 1 step
  jumping off : left handers : right foot, right handers : left foot
• jump off with your 'wrong' foot (1,2,3 steps)
