DRIBBLING/BOUNCING
In handball, medium-high dribbling is used more often by attackers than low or high dribbling.
In this manner, the ball is led alongside the body so that a player does not kick it and can also
protect it from an opponent. The ball is pushed down (NOT hit!) by moving the arm, forearm
and wrist toward the ground.

A player can dribble:
In place, when walking or while running.
With a dominant hand (right hand for a right-handed person).
With a non-dominant hand (left hand for a right-handed person).
By alternating between right and left hands.
Note: Dribbling is one of the last skills we introduce to children, first as a single bounce
between steps and then as other techniques (low, middle-high, in place, while moving,
switching from standing position to sitting position, etc.). Without dribbling, students must
rely on their teammates, play together, take information and concentrate on opponent
and teammate activities. With dribbling, students look mainly to the ball and become
disconnected from what is happening on the court around them. The main use of dribbling
is for faking, moving up the court and during fast breaks.
Good techniques of dribbling/bouncing permit player to:
Keep the position of the ball longer than 3 seconds.
Move up the court.
Avoid an opponent.
