Handball is believed to be one of humanity's oldest games. Some historians speculate that it predates soccer since humans have always been better at manipulating objects with their hands than with their feet. Team handball is a dynamic court game that is fun to play and exciting to watch. First-time spectators describe team handball as soccer with your hands, but they also notice elements that remind them of basketball, water polo and ice hockey. Participants and spectators alike enjoy the fast continuous play, the body contact and the goalie saves as both teams each of which are composed of 6 court players and a goalie use their natural athletic skills of running, jumping, throwing and catching. Team handball had its origins in Europe in the late 1920s, about the same time basketball was developing in the United States, and today enjoys great popularity throughout the world.


The International Handball Federation (IHF) consists of 136 member nations and 12 million registered players. A men's handball competition was included on the Olympic calendar at the Munich Games in 1972, after a 34 year absence, followed by the inclusion of women's competition in the 1976 Games in Montreal. During this past quadrennial, the U.S. Women won the Pan American Games and finished 8th in the Olympic Games in Atlanta. The U.S. men finished 4th in the Pan American Games and a very respectable 9th versus an excellent field in Atlanta. There are many records of handball like games in medieval France, and between the Inuit in Greenland, in the middle Ages. In the 19th century, there existed similar games of hand bold from Denmark, hazena in the Czech Republic, hadzana in Slovakia, gandbol in Ukraine, torball in Germany, as well as versions in Uruguay. The team handball game of today was formed by the end of the 19th century in northern Europe, primarily Denmark, Germany, Norway and Sweden. Holger Nielsen, a Danish gym teacher, drew up the rules for modern handball in 1898 and published them in 1906, and Rasmus Nicolai Ernst, another Danish teacher, did something similar in 1897. Modern Handball is therefore widely considered a game of Danish origins. On 29 October 1917 new rules were made and they are published by Max Heiser, Karl Schelenz, and Erich Konigh from Germany.

After 1919 these rules were improved by Karl Schelenz. The first international games were played under these rules, among Germany and Belgium for men in 1925 and among Germany and Austria for women in 1930. In 1926, the Congress of the International Amateur Athletics Federation nominated a committee to draw up international rules for field handball. The International Amateur Handball Federation was formed in 1928, and the International Handball Federation was formed in 1946. Men's field handball was played at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin. After that indoor handball took its place and that becomes very much popular in the Scandinavian countries. The sport re-emerged onto the world stage as team handball for the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich. Women's team handball was added at the 1976 Summer Olympics. Due to its popularity in the region, the Eastern European countries that refined the event became the dominant force in the sport when it was reintroduced. The International Handball Federation organized the men's world championship in 1938 and every 4 years from World War II to 1995. Since the 1995 world championship in Iceland, the competition has been every two years. The women's world championship has been played since 1957. The IHF has a major hand in organizing women's and men's junior world championships.

It’s a game of 60min in which there are two halves of each 30 minutes. Team who score more will win the game. Handball's rules are pretty simple. Standing on the side the court and beyond the short-line, a player serves by bouncing the ball and then in an underhand or sidearm motion, smacking it against the wall.


He then moves into the court, where his opponent is hitting the ball against the wall in return. Balls have to be hit after one bounce or "on the fly." If the server wins the volley, he or she gets a point. If the server fails to return a shot or hits it out of bounds, the opponent gets the serve. You can hit the ball with and open palm or fist. Singles games are fast, Doubles are faster. Now days it is named as Modern handball is usually played indoors but outdoor variants exist in the forms of field handball and Czech handball.
