The Russian Handball Championship of the Premier League has a tour structure. The duration of the multi-tour system of competitions in the Premier League of the Russian Handball championship is about 8-9 months. It is difficult for athletes to obtain the state of complete readiness for competitions for the short period of preseason (2-2.5 months). In the long-term competitive period it is hard to maintain the acquired condition, so the problems of maintaining and improving all kinds of preparedness have to be inevitably solved in the course of training. The problem of the study was the scientific substantiation of the microstructure of the training process of skilled handball players in the context of expanding competitive practice. The purpose of the study was to specify the orientation of training loads and the order of using different types of microcycles in the competitive period of training in order to develop the microstructure and content of the training process for men's handball teams. Owing to using the proposed type of the microstructure of the training process in the competitive training period of men's handball team within the main pedagogical experiment we managed to a void a significant reduction in the overall performance of the team players, the players’ indicators of speed-strength abilities, general and special endurance were which stable throughout the season. At the end of the educational experiment a decline was marked in speed abilities, but the indicators of competitive activity of the team players have not changed significantly on the whole, which enabled the team to outstrip its nearest opponents in the league table based on the results of the championship.
