Dear beach handball friends,
The last 3 years have brought many rules clarification and developments to beach handball, so the European Handbal Federation has been working on the release of a new teaching material for the beach handball referees.
The tutorial covers 9 different topics, which serve the purpose of making beach handball officiating more uniform in Europe. The guidelines are valid for all European tournaments from this point on.
- 1. 6-meter throw and 6-meter throw + punishment
- 2. Back-pass
- 3. Offensive foul
- 4. Offensive play (inside and outside the goal area)
- 5. Others
- 6. Passive play
- 7. Referee throw
- 8. Shoot-out (6-meter throw vs. 6-meter + Direct disqualification)
- 9. Specials
