      Difficulty level

      1. Technique

      No. 1 Wrist technique

      Category: Technique

      Minimum number of players: 2

      Difficulty level: 

      Equipment required: 1 handball per player

      Setting:

      - Two players, each holding a handball, stand face-to-face at a distance of about 4 to 5 meters.

      - Both players do the exercise in parallel.

      Preparation:

      - Before starting the exercise, the players should rotate their wrists (clockwise and counterclockwise), hinge them back and forth, and finally stretch them slightly.

      Course 1:

      - The players lift their arms to the side at an angle of 90°, hinge the wrist back as far as possible (figure 1), and pass the ball to the other player by only moving their wrists (figure 2). 

      - Change the throwing hand after 20 to 30 passes.

      (Figure 1)

      (Figure 2)

       The players should pass the ball in such a way that their teammate can catch it at chest height.

      Course 2:

      - The players lift their arms straight up, hinge back their wrists (figure 3), and pass the ball to the other player by only moving the wrist. The players should hinge their wrists back (figure 3) and forth (figure 4) as far as possible.

      (Figure 3)

      (Figure 4)

      Course 3:

      - The players hold their arms down and to the side, hinge their wrists back as far as possible (figure 5), and pass the ball to the other player by only moving their wrists (figure 6).

      (Figure 5)

      (Figure 6)

       The pass should be played by only moving the wrist – this applies to each of the three arm positions; the arm must not be moved but rather kept in the respective position.

      No. 2 Passing and shooting technique

      Category: Technique

      Minimum number of players: 2

      Difficulty level:

      Equipment required: 1 handball per team of two, 6 cones, large vaulting box, balance bench, 3 medicine balls

      Setting of course 1:

      - Two players stand face-to-face, each pair having one handball.

      Course 1:

      - The players keep passing the ball while moving back and forth (A and B).

      Variant:

      - The players run a slight curve to the left (right) (C) and then pass the ball to their teammate (D).

       Make sure that the toes point towards the teammate while passing the ball.

      Course 2:

      - The players shoot at medicine balls on top of a balance bench (E). 

      Course 3:

      - The players shoot at cones on top of a large vaulting box (F).

      Course 4:

      - The players shoot at cones on the floor (G).

      Observe the following:

       The right-handed player moves forward and plants his left foot firmly on the ground observing the three-step rule. His toes must point towards the teammate (shooting target) (figure 1). For left-handed players, the movement is done the other way around.

       The hip and upper body are rotated backwards. The upper arm and elbow must be in line with the shoulder (figure 1).

      (Figure 1)

       The players must keep
