Handball is one of the oldest sports in the world, dating back to 1500-2000 B.C. and is still incredibly popular today. Individuals or teams of two hit a small rubber ball against a wall with their hands. Similar to tennis, the objective is to make it impossible for the opponent to return the ball. The sport is divided into three categories depending on the number of walls surrounding the players: one-wall, three-wall and four-wall handball.
