"Big Ball Game"
Handball has been played for many years, different countries,
different courts, different balls, different rules, but the basics are
the same.
Very extreme sport. Challenging and very interesting.
Mental & physical abilities compared only to full contact sports;
boxing, wrestling...
The chances of being hurt in a hard handball competition are few.
No
weigh, size or age of the competitors matters. Pure sport.
Being able to compete today, tomorrow and the day after, if in a good
shape.

competitions.
"The tennis ball", is very commonly used in Mexico, with or
without fur.

small ball", used by most professional players in USA, Ireland,
