The key topics of this training unit are passing feints and how to combine them with a breakthrough or a return pass to a teammate. Following a warm-up running exercise, the players already learn how to pass the ball cleverly in a short game; this will be further developed in the ball familiarization phase. In the goalkeeper warm-up shooting exercise, the players practice passing feints in combination with a 1-on-1 breakthrough; in the subsequent series of shots, they combine the passing feint with a return pass to their teammate. Both variants will be implemented twice in the subsequent 1-on-1, 3-on-2, and 4-on-4 games.The training unit consists of the following key exercises:- Warm-up/Stretching (individual exercise: 10 minutes/total time: 10 minutes)- Short game (10/20)- Ball familiarization (15/35)- Goalkeeper warm-up shooting (10/45)- Offense/Series of shots (10/55)- Offense/Individual (10/65)- Offense/Small groups (15/80)- Closing game (10/90)Training unit total time: 90 min.Training unit requirements: Low level (all youth and adult teams)

JÖRG MADINGERIn 1995, a friend convinced me to join him in coaching a handball youth team (male, under 13 years of age).This was the beginning of my career as a team handball coach. Ever since I enjoyed working as a coach and had high requirements concerning my exercises. Soon, the standard pool of exercises wasnt enough for me anymore and I started to modify and develop drills myself.Today, I coach a broad range of youth and adult teams with different performance levels and adjust my training units to the individual needs of the teams.I have been selling my exercises and drills online at handball-uebungen.de for more than 10 years. Since, in handball training, there is a tendency towards a general athletic training that focuses on coordination work especially in the training of youth teams , a large number of my games and exercises can be applied to other sports as well.Get inspired by the various game concepts, be creative, and rely on your own experiences!Milestones of my career as a coach- Ongoing: Organization of technical training camps for field players and goalkeepers, further training for coaches, club coachings, etc. under direction of handball-uebungen.de.- 2017-2019: Youth coach at HG Oftersheim/Schwetzingen (Germany)- Since July 2012: A-License, German Handball Association (Deutscher Handballbund, DHB)- As of November 2011: Editor (handball-uebungen.de, Handball Practice, and Special Handball Practice)- 2008-2010: Youth coordinator and youth coach, SG Leutershausen (Germany)- Since 2006: B-LicenseYours sincerely,Jörg Madinger
