Missed it last week and a bit late today, sorry… but I didn’t want to skip it again. Watch this clip 👇 Thursday Question:How much should a team adapt to the strengths of one exceptional player? Curious to hear your thoughts – let me know in the comments below.

We’re excited to host a Q&A with Jordi Ribera One of the most respected coaches in international handball. Can’t make it live? No problem – drop your question below and we’ll bring it into the Q&A 👇

Tomorrow we’ll have our next Coaches Table, and this will be our topic: How and when do you give feedback to players, coaches, and staff? Feedback is one of the most powerful tools we have as coaches — but also one of the most delicate ones. - Do you give feedback during the drill, or prefer to wait until breaks or after practice? - How do you decide between individual vs. team feedback? - Do you focus more on positive reinforcement or corrective feedback? - How do you adapt your feedback depending on the age, level, or personality of your players? - And what about feedback within the staff — how open and direct are you there? There’s probably no perfect answer, but a lot of different approaches shaped by experience, culture, and context. What are your thoughts? Drop them in the comments 👇

👉 Are you communicating in a way that feels comfortable to you… or in a way that truly lands with the person in front of you? “Just be yourself” sounds nice, but it’s incomplete. Communication isn’t something you simply have – it’s a skill that can be developed, refined, or even neglected over time. What really matters is not just what you say, but how it is received. Every message is filtered through the other person’s perceptions – their experiences, expectations, and emotions. Two people can hear the same thing and take away completely different meanings. In practice, it’s not your intention that counts most, but the impact. Effective communication means adapting to the needs of the person in front of you, not just staying within your own preferences. 👇 Curious to hear your thoughts – drop your perspective in the comments!

Are we moving towards a point in handball where we judge the outcome of a contact more than the action itself? Situations many of us probably recognize: - Clearly over-aggressive fouls with no visible consequence → little or no punishment - “Normal” actions with unfortunate outcomes → suddenly severe decisions The challenge with this trend:Players start to adapt. 👉 Do I need to “show more” to make sure a foul is called? 👉 Should I exaggerate my reaction when a hard foul doesn’t look serious? This creates a vicious cycle:Decisions → behavior → stronger reactions → new decisions And we’re almost at a point where players deserve an award for being honest and saying: 👉 “It wasn’t a head contact.” My questions to you: 1. Do you see this trend as well? 2. How do you deal with it as a coach – in training and in games? 3. What can we do to shift the focus back to evaluating the action rather than the outcome? Really curious to hear your thoughts and experiences 👇
