Team Handball Tips

1. This unit has been written for students who already have had soccer and basketball and have developed most of the skills necessary to immediately enjoy getting into team handball. Lessons change insignificantly from one grade to another. They simply review with a mind to getting students into the game as quickly as possible. The unit is quite short. As a result, we may want to have students assess themselves. A quiz concludes each unit for each grade level.

2. Follow the lessons that combine skills and knowledge acquisition with the game.

3. Review skills with attention to what makes them different from the sport they originally were learned in.

4. Get students into the game immediately

5. Develop a short tournament, using a different approach to team selection that means changing teams each day and having a different person assume the captainship. This allows each student to be a captain for a day.

6. If students are unable to participate fully in class, remember that they can be involved by coaching, officiating, keeping score, or conducting a research project.
