What kind of shots do your wingers take in training? 🤾♂️ Are these shots where they always know when the ball is coming? Are they always prepared and under no pressure? Or are they shots with some element of stress, outside of the comfort zone? Think about how it looks in a game. The decision […]
How do you make saves like these during a game? The answer isn’t spectacular: you have to love the process. 🛑 Most people only see the 0.5-second save. Very few see: ✅ Consistent, heavy strength and motor skill training. ✅ Hundreds of reps of „boring” coordination and perception drills. ✅ Daily focus on the goal.
Wingers are not bystanders. 🛑 Too often in team practices, wingers are neglected when it comes to intensity. They stand in the corner, waiting for a ball that rarely arrives. I focus on building specific endurance so that wingers can execute high-intensity actions repeatedly. This drill demands: ✅ Repeatable high-speed sprints (wing to wing). ✅
Handball goalie gymnastics… Is it worth it? 🧱🧤 We often obsess over tactics and positioning, but without elite coordination and body control, a goalkeeper will always be a split second too late. I implement mat-based drills for both youth and experienced athletes. Here’s why: ✅ Builds overall athleticism and coordination. ✅ Forces an instant transition
I’m always hunting for efficiency. Even the simplest drill can bring massive value if you focus on the details. 🧪🤾♂️ In this single sequence, we are hitting 6 key elements at once: 1️⃣ Defense: solid physical contact. 2️⃣ Change of Direction: defender’s footwork to close the gap. 3️⃣ The Pass: accurate, high-tempo delivery to a
Want to win games? Start training your wingers! 🏆 They are often the most neglected group in the hall. While backs and pivots play at high intensity during 6-on-6, wingers are often just bystanders. That’s a mistake that costs games. Training an elite winger is a lifelong process. Their practice must be intense and push
A screen is a game of feeling and instant reaction. 🧱🤾♂️ In this drill, we force both sides to focus 100%: 1️⃣ Pivot: Must set a dynamic screen and „feel” which way the defender tries to slip by, then immediately show for the ball. 2️⃣ Defender: Starts with their back turned. The moment they feel
Sunday practice planning? I’ve got some solutions for you. 📋🤾♂️ Here are 3 proposed drills: 1️⃣ Winger Intensity: No more standing in the corner. 2-cone work combines agility with finishing under fatigue. 2️⃣ Goalkeeper Power: Using resistance bands builds the explosiveness a goalie needs for match-winning saves. 3️⃣ Tactical Fundamentals: 2v1, with a focus on
No court? No goal? Zero excuses. 🛑 When the main court is busy, you can always put in work „behind the curtain”. We used benches, cones, and even trash cans to sharpen motor skills and technique. While others are waiting for their turn, we’re out here building an advantage. Use your imagination to stay ahead.
Wingers are often the least tired players after practice. During 6-on-6 games, they usually spend too much time standing and waiting. That stops now. 🛑 Isolate them. Raise the intensity. Combine sprints and changes of direction (COD) with finishing under heavy fatigue. Coach’s Tip: When playing small-sided games in the center, send your wingers to
