hears rules-The rules of handball are pretty simple and are aimed at ensuring the game flows freely. We’ve compiled a list of some of the basic rules to help you get to grips with this fast-moving sport:
The six metre line
No player (other than the goalkeeper) is allowed in the goal area (inside the 6m line). Exceptions are after a shot on goal, when the player jumps into the area and shoots the ball before landing in the goal area.
‘Walking’
If a player takes more than three steps without dribbling (bouncing the ball) or holds the ball for more than three seconds without bouncing it, shooting or passing, then that is deemed ‘walking’ and possession is lost.
‘Double dribble’
Players cannot receive the ball and bounce it, then hold the ball, and bounce it again. This is termed ‘double dribble’ and is against the rules.
‘Kicking’
Players (other than the goalkeeper) must not kick the ball. If the ball touches the foot, then possession is awarded to the opposition.
Fouls
No tripping, pushing, hitting, clinching, charging or holding is allowed.
