Passing is an essential skill that all handball players need to practice and master. Without the ability to pass it’s impossible for a handball team to work together effectively. The following handball passing drills are all created to help handball players and teams to learn proper and accurate passing technique.Drill #1:
To perform this drill all players must form a circle with a passer positioned in the center. A ball should be given to the passer in the center of the circle and one of the players forming the circle.
The passer in the middle then passes to the player to the right of the player holding the other ball and at the same time the other player with the ball should pass their ball to the passer in the middle.This continues on until the balls have gone through two full rotations of the circle after which the passer in the middle is switched for another player. Drill #2: This handball passing requires four players to form a square with one player standing at each corner of the square. A fifth attacking player is then positioned in the middle of the square with a ball.
The player in the middle of the square can throw to any player in the corner and that player must pass back immediately. This should be repeated 10-15 times and then the player in the middle of the square can change. Drill #3: This passing drill is designed to get players used to making quick passes and helps to improve their reaction time. Pair up players and give a ball to one player from each pair. Have the other player standing a few yards away from them with their hands down by their sides and facing their partner. The player with must then pass the ball to the second player and as soon as it’s being passed the second player must quickly bring up their hands and catch the ball. The roles are then switched and the ball is passed back and this continues on for several rounds.
Drill #4:
This drill involves three players and one ball. It’s performed by positioning two players t the horizontal points of an imaginary T. At the bottom of the imaginary T stands the passer.
The passer can throw the ball to any one of the other two players.The players must be agile to catch the ball and pass back immediately.
The passer can also throw the ball high up so that so that the players can learn to pass back in mid air.

Excellent introduction indeed passing is the key to successful attacks, if the passing accuracy is high less balls are lost and fewer counter attacks are executed by the opponents, those are great drills you proposed if you would allow me i can propose some handball passing drills myself.
