History
European Handball
Team handball originated from Europe in
the 1900s and over 140 countries are
recognized as members of the
International Handball Federation
(IHF). Handball first appeared in the
Olympics in the 1936 Berlin Games as an
outdoor sport, with 11 players on a side. It
was not played again at the Olympic
Game until 1972, where it was played
indoors with 7 players on each side.
Women’s handball was added to the
Olympic Games in 1976.
OBJECTIVE OF
THE GAME
Objective…
Handball is a combination of the elements of
football and basketball. It almost has the
dimensions of a basketball court and the rules of
football except that it is the other way around,
● The players are not allowed to use their feet
in controlling the ball instead players must
use the skills passing, dribbling, and
shooting almost just like in basketball.
● It consists of six players (and one goalie).
● The ball is moved down and up opn the
floor that is larger than a basketball court
and the goal is to score by throwing the ball
into the net past a goalkeeper.
Objective…
● A successful scoring attempt results into a
single point. The goalie is the only player
that is allowed to step in the goal area.
● The team who will start the game with a
throw-off is determined through a coin toss.
The game is played in halves. Each half is
played within 30 minutes. Each team is
given one timeout call per half. Referee’s
discretion, timeouts, or injuries stop the
clock.
