knowledgeable about court EXPLAIN the use of different lines that is indicated inside
the court.
Answer:
The Handball Court:
Before you start out playing handball, brush up on the basics, including the dimensions of
the court and the ball used.

 The handball court — measures 40m x 20m (131.25ft x 65.62ft).

 The handball goal — 2m (6.56ft) tall and 3m (9.84ft) wide.
 6m line — the dividing line between goalkeepers and the rest of the players.
 7m line — where penalty shots are taken following fouls on players with a clear
shooting chance on goal.
 9m line — an arcing dotted line extending from the goal. It marks where an
attacking team resumes play after being fouled inside the line. Also known as the ‘free-
throw line’.
 Halfway line — where the game is started from at the beginning of the game and
after half-time, and also for restarting after a goal is scored.
 Substitution line — where players must leave the court when a substitution is
made.
 Goal area in handball — the area in which the goalkeeper operates. Players can
jump in this area so long as they release the ball before they land.

3. All the basic skills in Handball, choose at least one skill that is very important in
playing handball and Why?
Answer:
PASSING: To almost any great goal or throw you see, there is an even better pass before
that. Be it a side pass, bounce pass, high, low or even a hand-off - There is nothing that
improves your attack quite like a good passing game. That's why the best passing drills
for handball should be part of your next session plan. To maximize the potential of your
training session it is important that all of your players get a higher number of repetitions
with the ball to develop these fundamental skills. So having a ball for at least every two
players is recommended when practicing your team's passing skills.

4. Example, you are one of the varsity in an on going match and opponent is leading the
score. Think of a strategy that you will be able to put score in your team. Arrange you
strategy in bullet form.
Answer:

 Quick, accurate passes are your friend. Try not to lob the ball or make long passes
as it gives the opposing team a chance to take possession.
 Try constantly cutting towards the goal with or without the ball; this forces the
defense to continuously adjust and opens up more scoring opportunities for your
team.
 Move the ball quickly and keep the dribbling to a minimum. Scoring
opportunities develop when sharp, quick passes are made and the defense does
not have time to adjust to what you’re doing.
 Don’t force a shot! If you drive for a shot and are blocked by defense, pass to a
teammate instead.
 Use ‘feint’ movements; fake out the defense. Pretend to shoot but pass instead,
pretend to move left but go right, etc.
