Count your workshops rather than your players when choosing a set of 5 handballs: five balls can run a shooting column or a passing exercise without any downtime, without turning the gym into a field of lost balls.
Training balls, match balls, or those without resin are bought in fives of the same model, enough to fill a team's bag or start a new category.
In a handball session, exercises are often done in workshops: one group for shooting, one for passing, and one for goalkeepers. Five balls fuel a workshop without the players waiting, while remaining easy to monitor and pick up. For a team training on half a court, this is often the right number.
A column of wing shots runs well with five balls placed at the edge of the court. For ball advances and two-man counter-attacks, each duo takes their own and leaves as soon as they’ve shot. The pivot works on receiving with their back to the goal with a passer who always has a ball in hand.
On match day, a team warms up with their own balls. A set of five match balls, such as the Ultimate from Select in LFH colours or the Star Match from Hummel, is enough for warm-up shots and goalkeeper practice. For a team playing in a hall without resin, the D60 from Molten is also available in sets of five.
The range covers all uses. Select offers five of the Solera, Mundo, and Campo, as well as a beach handball. Kempa has the Spectrum Synergy, the Leo, and the Tiro, while Hummel offers the Star and the Classic. Erima adds the Flash and the Magic, and Softee provides their beginner balls in size 1.
The five balls in a set are all the same size, to be chosen according to the category. Size 3 is for men from 16 years, size 2 for women from 14 years and boys aged 12 to 16, size 1 for girls aged 8 to 14 and boys aged 8 to 12. A club opening a new team should take a set of five in the size for that category.
For a goalkeeper or a single player, the set of 3 balls is sufficient. For a whole category, switch to the set of 10 balls. All formats are on the balls set page.
The current discounts are in the special ball offers and the special club offers. The Black Friday balls arrives at the end of autumn, and the ball clearance keeps the end-of-line items.
For a shooting workshop or pre-match warm-up, yes. For technical exercises where everyone needs to have their own ball, rather plan for a set of ten, or two sets of five.
Training balls for the week, and a small set of match balls for the big day. The younger players get used to the match ball without wearing out the finest models in training.
Yes, a beach handball Select is offered in sets of five. It is softer than a hall ball, for playing on sand without hurting yourself on the hands.
A pump that inflates both ways saves time. Moisten the needle before inserting it into the valve, and check the pressure with a gauge to ensure you have five identical balls.
Yes, it’s a format easy to transport for a camp, tournament, or outdoor session. Use training balls, which are more durable on rough surfaces than match balls.
