Handball is an emblematic sport in which European nations excel, and it is a spectacular discipline. This Nordic sport is governed by rules that vigorously promote attacking play and promise plenty of action, as well as precision, since to score a goal the ball must be thrown from more than six meters out!
Although 7-a-side handball is played indoors, the sport can also be practiced outdoors on grass, in the case of 11-a-side handball, but also on sand in the case of beach handball, which pits teams of four. Fancy giving it a go and playing handball in Paris?
Great news! There are several self-service courts and clubs that let you practice this sport across the four corners of the capital. From introductory sessions for the youngest to practice for seniors, handball can thus be practiced in an accessible way, either by joining a club, or by gathering with other players and heading to the various sports centers of the capital!
