What is handball?...?

Question

I've been scrolling around the sports section, and I've nver have heard of handball before.

Answer 1

Handball is a team sport where two teams of seven players each (six players and a goalkeeper) pass and bounce a ball trying to throw it in the goal of the opposing team.

The game has a goal similar to but smaller than the one in association football, though as the name implies, the basic method of handling the ball involves the players' hands rather than their feet. The game has been played internationally since the 1920s.

Answer 2

I agree, handball isn't very popular sport...
