5. Handball at School Philosophy
School handball programmes have the potential to develop and broaden the foundation
of ‘Learning by Doing’ that takes place in physical education classes at schools around the
world. Therefore, the IHF provides the opportunity to introduce a comprehensive training and
education programme for PE teachers and coaches in schools across all continents.
The focus of our mission will be to support the delivery of handball curriculum activities, such
as school lessons, and to provide orginisational tools that support the formation of festivals,
tournaments and leagues. It is important to note that handball in schools is primarily a collective
activity, based on fundamental movements such as running, jumping, catching and throwing
and understanding the basic principles of the game. Also, it is anticipated that the training of
PE teachers/coaches and national/continental multipliers will lead to a natural growth in the
provision of handball curriculum-based activities.
The underlying philosophical principles of this programme include:
Learning step-by-step.
Respect the developmental stages of children.
Develop positive experiences in physical education:
• Pursuant to health and fitness standards.
• According to fair play, team spirit, friendship, and healthy lifestyle.
Teaching students the right values and the importance of individual and group
development, being able to analyse situations and to quickly choose correct solutions
with respect to rules, understanding of team roles, support and cohesion with
teammates, etc.
Gain
personal experience of success, failure, cooperation, responsibility, confidence,
etc. through playing handball.
Emphasis on enjoyment, motivation, participation, integration, inclusion, equality,
intelligence, communication, creativity, etc.
The Handball at School programme has several core objectives, including making handball
more attractive to youngsters through a game-based approach. For successful implementation
and subsequent development of this programme, the IHF helps with the creation of new
methodical materials and specialised courses for the whole education system, which
includes students, PE teachers, multipliers, lecturers, coaches, college and university sports
development staff, etc. We believe this programme can greatly contribute to the physical,
social and intellectual development of children, as well as promote physical literacy for
communities.
