Team Handball Gear for Coaches & Clubs

Team handball gear for clubs, coaches and school programs: ball packs, practice pinnies, goals and nets, coaching books, training equipment and apparel bundles, sold in the quantities a squad actually needs.

Equipping a team handball squad

A squad of fifteen needs one ball for every two players at practice, plus two match balls kept aside and inflated to game pressure. Buying balls, socks and pinnies in packs is how clubs keep a season's budget under control.

What a new program needs first

Six to eight practice balls in the size matching your age group
Two match balls, stored separately
Two sets of pinnies in contrasting colors for scrimmages
A pump with spare needles and a pressure gauge
Cones and an agility ladder for footwork blocks
A ball bag or cart if you move between gyms
A first aid kit and athletic tape

Pinnies, not bibs

What Europeans call training bibs are pinnies or scrimmage vests in the United States. Two contrasting colors cover nearly every drill; a third helps for three-team rotations.

Goals and nets

Regulation goals are 3 by 2 meters. Most American programs share a gym, so folding or wheeled goals are usually the practical choice. Netting stored outdoors degrades fast: keep a spare set.

Coaching resources

Team handball is still developing in the United States and most coaching material comes from Europe. The books in this section cover defensive systems (6-0, 5-1, 3-2-1), attacking patterns and youth progressions.
