Line handball

Description of the game

The handball court is used as the playing field, or the entire hall that is available. We form the teams and decide which team start the game by casting lots. The two teams take place on their own sides of the playing field, and the game starts by a throw-off. The attacking team try to approach the base line of the opponent, and to put the ball behind the base line, so that it does not bounce or roll away. If they manage to do this, they score a goal, and the other team take the ball and continue the game with a throw-off. The winner is the team that score more goals during the playing time. 

Rules of the game

  1. We apply the rules of handball (rules of steps, time, dribble, throw-off, throw in, etc.).
  2. In case of a foul, we rule a free throw, which must be executed at the place of the foul (stepping error, catching, ball handling error, defending foul, etc.).
  3. The goal is valid, if the player does not fall off the small box after catching the ball, and it stays in his hand.
