1. There are many tips and tricks that can help you excel as a handball player become a
varsity in playing that game, but the most important thing you can do is just to keep playing.
Here are some things you can work on as you improve your game:

To be a master handball player, you and your team should work on passing the ball to each
other as much as you can. This is faster than dribbling and can get you to the goal more
quickly. When you are defending, you can work on keeping your hands up so that you block
shots as well as passing opportunities for the other team. When you're dribbling, work on
using one hand to dribble while shielding the ball with your other hand to keep it safe from the
opposing team. Most importantly, just keep practicing! The more you play, the better you'll be
at handball.

2. Before you start out playing handball, brush up on the basics, including the dimensions of
the court and lines.

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. The game of handball is a deeply complex phenomenon. For one to be 'good' at handball
they must hold the integral skills required to play: One of the important skill in handball is
Serving, a good serve requires a keen eye, a strong arm and smart wit. Starting the rally is
quite possibly the most important as it sets up the rest of the game.
4. If we really wanted to win and defeat our opponent , We will make 2 strategies plan that
would help us to score and win the fight

Offensive Strategies:
●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.

Defensive Strategies:
●Be ready to switch from offense to defense FAST. If there’s a turnover, your whole team
needs to be ready to switch to defense otherwise you leave yourself open to a lot of scoring
opportunities. Handball is a fast-paced game and these turnovers happen quickly.

●Decide as a team if you will defend man-to-man or zone. 

●Man-to-man means each member on your team picks a player on the other team and covers
them directly. When done right, it can work really well, however, it is physically tiring and if one
person doesn’t cover their mark properly, it can leave them open to score.

●Zone defense is where all of your team members defend the entire zone. The most effective
way to do this is to line up on your crease to limit the offense’s scoring opportunities; this
directly protects the goal area.

●Whether you’re defending man-to-man or zone, always position yourself between your
opponent and the goal; don’t fall behind your opponent.
