Question

Is handball purely about reflexes, or a little of brute strength?

Answer 1

a little of both would be helpful, a keeper needs fast reflexes over brute strength though

Answer 2

Being a keeper in this sport is all about reflexes indeed.

A field player on the other hand has to have both. You can have brute strength or just good technique to become a good player.

Answer 3

both actually. It depends if you aren't strong then its about speed and reflexes. But if you work out and have rock hard muscles your best bet would be to use your strength and hit the ball as hard as you can, normally this throws off many people and you can win the game. Having both would be awesome.

Answer 4

Idk. Why is there even a handball section here in the first place? Its not like handball is a big sport or anything.

Answer 5

both , I tend to use reflexes but if u have "a power arm" use it strength helps with your shot but the harder you shoot  the more likely you are to miss
