How do you prepare players for all possible situations on the pitch? Handball sports accessories and the right exercises will help you do this. Find out more!
HANDBALL TRAINING – WHERE TO START?
Playing handball requires very good physical fitness, stamina and coordination. The player should be nimble and agile and able to control the ball. Before they start playing matches, they should prepare themselves properly. Handball training should include:
• strengthening exercises – shoulder girdle, forearms, arms and legs;
• performance exercises – mainly interval training, preparing for the effort on the pitch;
• motor exercises – improving agility, nimbleness, speed.
However, in the first stage of preparing players for handball, the focus is primarily on games and physical activities. They are the ideal choice for first training sessions and also for physical education lessons at school. Meanwhile, simple handball training accessories help to carry out both basic and more advanced exercises.
SPORTS ACCESSORIES FOR HANDBALL AND THEIR USE
What sports accessories for handball are worth equipping yourself with and how do you use them? Below you will find some examples.
Coordination ladders and hoops
Coordination ladders are versatile sports accessories – for handball and more. They are primarily used for practising leg work, with particular emphasis on speed and coordination. Ladders can also be used for various warm-up activities. They will prove useful not only as training equipment for handball, but also during general training or preparation for football or other team sports. Coordination hoops have exactly the same function, but differ from ladders in form. In addition, thanks to the form of the hoop, they can also be used, for example, for practising passing accuracy. Training hurdles, including those with adjustable heights to increase the level of difficulty, are also useful for coordination exercises.
Cones
Working with the ball is also an important part of handball training. This should include, among other things, ball cosseting and moving around the pitch. Cones can help improve these skills. Simply place them at different distances and slalom between them. This type of exercise helps develop the speed and agility required in handball by teaching control of the ball and the body.
Target net
But simply moving freely with the ball is not enough. After all, in handball, the goal of every team is to score goals. That is why the accuracy of the attacking players is extremely important. The target net is very simple training equipment for handball. It covers the central part of the goal light, leaving only the corners free. In this way, it prepares the player well for the game. These types of handball training accessories are also very durable thanks to being made of high-quality materials. Flat markers can also be used to practice accuracy (e.g. passing). These take the form of coloured circles that can be placed on the floor. Thanks to being made of rubber, they stay in place, making it easier to carry out different types of exercises.
