  • Form teams of 4-6. Each team has a ball and lane 20-30m, with everyone starting up the same end. Place a cone about half way along each line.
  • Coach yells 'go!' and the first player from each team at one end sprints out with a ball.
  • Before the player reaches the half way point (B) they must handball out in front so the ball travels past that cone
    The skill is to handball with good vertical spin so the ball doesn't travel too far off-course
  • (A) gathers their own handball, touches the ball on line (C), then repeats the same coming back - handball across (B) and gather - before handballing to next in line.
  • Once all players from a team have gone up and back, they shout "finished". Continue until all teams finish.
    You may award points for places, or just 1 point to the winner.
  • Variations to iIncrease intensity: Instead of players touching the ball on line (C), have a second handball through this gate, then 2 more handballs on the return journey.
    Outbound handballs at: (B ) then (C)
    Inbound handballs at: (C) then (B)
  • Vairation 2: Pull the cones out and have kicks instead of handballs.
