Olympic Handball brief overview of origin & rules

Handball was first played towards the end of the 19th era in Scandinavia and then in Germany. Their field handball was also gaining recognition as a game. G. Wallstrom presented the sport to Sweden in 1910. The two types of sport were played until 1966, then indoor handball was initiated to swap field handball. The modern form is played on an indoor court evaluating 40m x 20m between two sides of seven players.

Players can take up to three steps without dribbling and are allowed to hold the ball for a maximum of three seconds. The team with the most goals at the end of the two 30-minute halves wins. Twelve teams compete in both the women’s and men’s competitions at the Olympic Games. Handball is a contact sport in which attackers and defenders are allowed to make body contact with an opponent.

Making it a very physical and challenging sport for the performers involved. Offensive plans are even encouraged; as reflexive play is illegal. Durability and strength are therefore vital qualities for the players. However, this sport also implicates tactics, teamwork and flexibility, as all players substitute between attack and defence.

Olympic Games history

Field handball made its Olympic introduction at the Berlin 1936 Games. Then it was played as a demo sport at the Helsinki 1952 Games. The indoor version was first performed on the Olympic programme 20 years later at the Munich 1972 Games. The first women’s Olympic Handball contest was held four years later at the Montreal 1976 Games. European countries control this sport.

Apart from when South Korea picked up two honours at the Seoul 1988 Games. Then one was in the women’s event at the Barcelona 1992 Games. All Olympic Handball medals have been won by European nations. The women’s and men’s competitions will take place between the 25th of July and the 11th of August.

The women’s contest is planned in the same way as the FIFA competitions, they were played on a grass field with two teams of 11 in games split into two 45-minute halves. The same guidelines apply to the men’s game, but with a slight difference in the arrangement of the teams.

Indeed, the side can only include players from the U-23 group, with a maximum of three extra older players. Football is also one of the few sports in which the contest starts before the opening ritual. Because there are so many games. That is why, since the Sydney Olympics in 2000. The competition started two days before the Olympic games are officially released.
