@@mitskiR Yes it is. Field handball was introduced for men at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, but dropped after that. At the 1952 Olympics, field handball was a demonstration sport. (Indoor) handball was introduced for men at the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich. Women's handball competition was introduced at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal
@@mitskiR No, its just the evolution of the sports as people get older. Similar to how you play Tee-Ball in primary school and might try baseball or softball later in life.
There is handball in the Olympics but it’s a different game just same name >:( I was excited when I saw but it when I saw it wasn’t that, I was disappointed lOL
I was the No.1 player in Cronulla High School in NSW in 2014-2015 and i used to win by defending a lot and i was very flexible and very fast, so if i have a go at playing these boys i think i can do well. Basically the killer trick is to hit the ball right after it bounces, like a groundstroke in tennis, and if you are on the run trying to get to the ball and hit it back, don't just return it, smack it as hard as you can cross court or down the line. I am very talented in table tennis and tennis so i know the theory how to play the game with dominance. This is a very good sport to play but also very tiring, i used to play 60 minute matches best of 5 games to 11 points, my most favourite is winning from 2 games down saving 4 match points, score was 9-11 9-11 11-9 14-12 15-13. Its very important to be mentally strong too in pressure points, also if people are watching its important to switch off everything that they are saying and yelling to you and focus fully on the ball and what you will do with it. Best of luck to everyone who plays frequently and enjoy the game!
I like your comment man - your skill for the game comes across as genuinely believable. Sometimes I hit the ball before it bounces to give my opponent even less time to react. It depends on the situation though. Looking at this video these guys play in relatively big squares. That combined with the pressure of a multi round tournament makes it easy to slip up imo. I could probably do well against them as well however it wouldn’t be easy goings. Have a great day.
@@jackmorrow-zhang9106 If you are standing lets say more towards the middle of your box, then you will most likely hit the ball before it bounces, i do that too at times and it very often serves me well. Yeah these boxes are quite large i used to play in smaller ones which quite a few of my shots always used to go out by 5-10 centimetres. I liked playing in larger boxes like these ones but i didn't have problems in smaller ones either. Thanks bud have a great day too :))
I first played in Sydney, Aus when I was about 10 years old and won a local tournament there. I was new to the school from N.Z but my cousins had courts at their place, which was how I got good at it. We played all day everyday and then I was signed up by my cousin. I'm now 50, a teacher and still enjoy playing this game with the kids during morning team breaks or lunchtimes, if not too hot. My own kids play and are decent. At my current school, most kids play multi-squared e.g. 4 square, 6 and even 8 square. Not many, if any play one on one. I have felt compelled to start a handball comp at our school next term and the kids I've told are all keen. The rules will be standardised, so they will need to adjust to the school rules rather than their local rules or 'mates rules'. One v One. In order for there to be a King or Queen of the court, it has to be one v one. Even the court size I've decided to go with 2.5 metres wide and 3 metres deep. Play to 7 and must win by two points. Best of three. Headers are not allowed. This in my opinion is by far the best school game ever!!!
A few questions: 1. did you do pool play or elimination? tennis style draw? 2. what does each game play to? 7, 11 or 21? 3. how many sets? 3? 4. court dimensions Reason: I'm going to do a tournament next term at my school but would be keen to know how you went about it. I'm a teacher here in N.Z but I first played in Sydney as a student back in the early 80's. I'm now 50 and I still play the game in the yard with students from time to time. I am thinking each year level have their own tournament rather than two year levels. Cheers
We had a roster of about 30 guys battle out 1v1, 3-4 different elimination rounds. Until there were two remaining. We did the eliminations for about 2-3 weeks before this final. Points were to 11. 3 sets for the final. The eliminations were only 1 set. The dimensions might of been 4m x 4m squares but we played on that because the whole playground was designed with those bricks like that. The balls used were the high bounce type which is very spinny, the players knew the ball would fly away if they hit it too hard.
@@zejams I really appreciate your feedback. We did 3 sets during elimination but looking forward 1 set as you did is what we'll do with a 3 setter in the final. Our dimensions were 3m square. The finals were played in a courtyard where it was viewed by hundreds with a great atmosphere. My daughter won the Year 7 girls.
