Regular Season Schedules

Overview:

Team Handball is a sport consisting of teams with 5 players and a goalie. This fast-paced & high scoring game is similar to ultimate frisbee, with an element of jumping and throwing. The players move the ball down the basketball court & attempt to score by throwing the ball past the goalkeeper into the net. Players must jump prior to the 3pt. line in order to have a legal shot attempt, but the thrower may land inside the 3pt. arc.

Minimal contact is allowed, and players may not hold the ball for more than 10 seconds. Players with the ball are also restricted to 3 steps, until they must pass, shoot, or dribble (in order to be able to take additional steps). Penalty shots are given for fouls for players that are in a throwing motion towards the goal from the free throw line. A free shot is given to a team at the top of the 3pt. line, if a defensive player steps into the 3pt circle.
