Abstract
The significance of this research lies in the use of pressure training exercises with varying distances to enhance certain types of speed and offensive skills in handball. Regarding the research problem: Based on the researcher’s modest experience, his follow-up of the club’s handball team, and his attendance at the team’s matches, he observed that the players’ speed does not meet the required level. This allows opposing players to quickly return and thwart attacks, which leads to a decline in progress and success, and subsequently, a lower goal-scoring rate. This observation prompted the researcher to investigate this issue in depth in order to address it. The solution involved employing pressure training through the manipulation of exercise intensity, controlling and varying distances, and changing directions during exercises to mimic real gameplay. The aim was to elevate the level of speed and offensive skills in handball as a significant step toward advancing the game by providing practical and effective solutions. If any part of the translation appears unclear or inaccurate compared to the original text, feel free to share which part needs refinement for further improvement. The objectives of the research were to prepare compression training exercises by changing the distance to develop certain types of speed and offensive skills in handball, as well as to assess the effect of these exercises and identify the differences between the pre- and post-tests of the experimental and control groups. The final goal was to identify the differences between the post-tests of the experimental group. The experimental method with both experimental and control groups was used due to its suitability for the nature of the problem and to find appropriate solutions. The research sample consisted of youth players from Diyala Sports Club in handball. The main conclusions were that the exercises used in compression training had a positive effect on developing certain types of speed and offensive skills in handball. Additionally, the compression training method, which involved changing the distance, helped to increase motivation among the players. The most important recommendations were to adopt compression training exercises by changing the distance within training units for coaches, as these exercises successfully achieved their training goals by developing certain types of speed and offensive skills among young handball players. Additionally, the study recommended applying these exercises to other variables and samples and further developing them. and this achieves one of the sustainable development goals of the United Nations in Iraq which is (Quality Education).
