Handball Quiz :-

Handball is a fast-paced team sport played on a rectangular court, with two teams of seven players each. The objective is to score goals by throwing a small, round ball into the opponent’s net. Players can use their hands to pass, dribble, and shoot, but they cannot hold the ball for more than three seconds without passing or dribbling. The game combines elements of soccer and basketball, emphasizing quick movement, strategic play, and teamwork. Matches are typically played in two 30-minute halves, and the team with the most goals at the end wins.
