Passing and catching are two basic techniques in handball, which have to be continuously practiced and improved in training. The 25 practical exercises given here offer many variations to train passing and catching, both challenging and varied. A special focus is to be put on improving the accuracy in passing and catching in motion with high dynamics. Therefore, the exercises are combined with new pathways and near-to-play movements.
The exercises are easy to understand and clearly explained using simple language and diagrams, and can be integrated directly into each training session. Passing and catching can be adapted to different levels of difficulty and complexity for all age groups.

Motivation
In 1995, I was persuaded by a friend to take over the training of a male D-youth team together with him.
This was the beginning of my work as a trainer. I then took a liking to the duties of a coach and always set high standards for the type of exercises I did. Soon, the standard repertoire I had been using was no longer adequate and I started to modify exercises and to think up my own practice routines.
Today, I train several youth and active teams at a wide range of different levels and gear my training sessions specifically towards the respective teams – I have been very successful doing this.
The range of services I offer is rounded off by holding regular advanced training courses for coaches.
My ambition is to bring every player just that little bit closer to achieving their own goals bit by bit according to individual abilities.
I also want to make my collection of exercises available to other trainers and thus encourage them to develop their own ideas.
In the meantime, the team at handball-uebungen.de now consists of three trainers, who are responsible for the planning and design of the content.
