The Handball Arena and Olympic Handball Tickets

The Handball Arena for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, United Kingdom will be located in the Olympic Park in Stratford, East London. The Handball Arena will also be the Goal ball venue for the 2012 Summer Paralympics.

London's Olympic bid proposed that there would be four arenas in the Olympic Park, but the revised master plan published in 2006 reduced this to three, with the volleyball being moved to Earls Court Exhibition Centre. The fencing arena was also cancelled, and the fencing will now take place at ExCeL.

The Handball Arena will have 6,000 to 7,000 seats. It will be used for handball preliminaries and quarter finals and modern pentathlon fencing and shooting during the Olympic Games, and for goal ball during the Paralympics Games. The handball semi finals and final will be held at the larger Basketball Arena. The Olympic Delivery Authority plans to submit a planning application in September 2008 and complete the building in 2011. Post 2012 it will be adapted to become a multi-sport arena for community use, athlete training and small-to-medium scale events. It will be the only permanent indoor arena retained in the Olympic Park, as the Basketball Arena will be relocated.

Handball Penalties and Olympic Handball Tickets

Penalties are given to players, in progressive format, for fouls that require more punishment than just a free throw. "Actions" directed mainly at the opponent and not the ball such as reaching around, holding, pushing, hitting, tripping, or jumping into opponent as well as contact from the side or from behind a player are all considered illegal and subject to penalty. Any infraction that prevents a clear scoring opportunity will result in a seven-meter penalty shot.

Typically the referee will give a warning yellow card for an illegal action, but if the contact was particularly dangerous the referee can forego the warning for an immediate two-minute suspension. A player can only get one warning before receiving a two minute suspension. One player is only permitted two 2-minute suspensions; third time he/she will be shown the red card.

A red card results in an ejection from the game and a two minute penalty for the team. A player may receive a red card directly for particularly rough penalties. For instance any contact from behind during a fast break is now being treated with a red card. A red carded player has to leave the playing area completely. A player who is disqualified may be substituted with another player after the two minute penalty is served. A Coach/Official can also be penalized progressively. Any coach/official who receives a 2-minute suspension will have to pull out one of his players for two minutes - note: the player is not the one punished and can be substituted in again, because the main penalty is the team playing with a man less than the other.

After having lost the ball during an attack, the ball has to be laid down quickly or else the player not following this rule will face a 2-minute suspension. Also gesticulating or verbally questioning the referee's order, as well as arguing with the officials decisions, will normally result in a 2-minute suspension. If it is done in a very provocative way, a player can be given a double 2-minute suspension if he/she does not walk straight off the field to the bench after being given a suspension, or if the referee deems the tempo deliberately slow. Illegal substitution, any substitution that does not take place in the specified substitution area or where the entering player enters before the exiting player exits is also punishable with a 2 minute suspension.

Habdball Court and Handball Tickets

                           Handball is a great sport to get your body fit and healthy, through fast paced and energetic matches. However, before you start out in the world of handball, it’s best that you know the dimensions of the court and the type of ball you’ll be playing with. Handball was the original form of what is now team handball and was played at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin.

              The sport is played on a grass field similar to a Association football field between 90 and 110 meters long, 55 to 65 meters wide. The field has two parallel lines 35 meters from the goal line, which divides the field into 3 sections; each section can have up to 6 players of each team. The goal area is a semicircular line with a 13-meter radius, and the penalty mark at 14 meters from the goal. The goal is 7.32 meters wide and 2.44 meters high.

Handball Tickets

Handball is a team sport in which two teams of seven players each six outfield players and a goalkeeper pass a ball to throw it into the goal of the other team. The team with the most goals after two periods of 30 minutes wins.

Modern handball is usually played indoors, but outdoor variants exist in the forms of field handball and Czech handball which were more common in the past and beach handball. American handball and Gaelic handball are completely different sports from team handball.

The game is quite fast and includes body contact as thedefenders try to stop the attackers from approaching the goal. Contact is only allowed when the defensive player is completely in front of the offensive player, i.e. between the offensive player and the goal. This is referred to as a player sandwich. Any contact from the side or especially from behind is considered dangerous and is usually met with penalties. When a defender successfully stops an attacking player, the play is stopped and restarted by the attacking team from the spot of the infraction or on the nine meter line. Unlike in basketball where players are allowed to commit only 5 fouls in a game (6 in the NBA), handball players are allowed an unlimited number of "faults", which are considered good defense and disruptive to the attacking team's rhythm.

The team handball game of today was formed by the end of the 19th century in northern Europe, primarily Denmark, Germany, Norway and Sweden. Holger Nielsen, a Danish gym teacher, drew up the rules for modern handball in 1898 and published them in 1906, and Rasmus Nicolai Ernst, another Danish teacher, did something similar in 1897. Modern Handball is therefore widely considered a game of Danish origins.
