CUE PERCEPTION
Major stages for handball learning, based on Teaching Games for Understanding Model
Effective handball teaching is about combining the teaching of tactical understanding with
skill development. On the surface, it makes sense, first, to teach basic handball techniques
(throwing and catching, three-step rule, shooting, etc.), and, then, to teach tactics. This might
be the case when working with very young learners (under 5-6 years old) that are not able
to throw and catch the ball yet, in which case, they should mainly play lead-up games and
develop coordination and techniques of ball manipulation, catching and throwing, etc.
