HANDBALL
MINI HANDBALL
Mini handball is a tool to teach handball, with rules adapted
to make the game accessible, challenging and enjoyable
for children. Therefore, it is up to the PE teacher or coach to
shape the rules appropriately with freedom submitted only
to the utility principle – if a change of rule is useful to teach
something (technically or tactically), then, change the rule.
Five against five on a smaller field is popular, but there are no
limitations to the adaptations that can be made.
Handball is played on a rectangular court of 40 x 20
metres. The goals at each end are bounded by a goalarea
line of 6 metres, roughly curved, and in which only
the team’s goalkeeper can act. A player is allowed to hold
the ball for up to 3 seconds, to move holding the ball for
a maximum of 3 steps and to dribble until being stopped. The
defender may fight for possession of the ball and prevent
the opponent from shooting at the goal as long as the player
does not grab, push or otherwise endanger the opponent’s
physical integrity.
BEACH HANDBALL
Created in the 90s, beach handball features many of the
best qualities of handball, with fast-paced game play and
spectacular goals, but has taken much of the contact out
of the game, and rewards creativity and risk with 2 points
for goals scored under certain dynamic conditions. A team
is comprised of three field players and a goalkeeper. Beach
handball is played with two timed halves, and each half must
have a winner, similar to winning a set in tennis. If the game is
tied at the end of regulation, a series of shoot-outs is played
until a winner is found.
