Isn't handball kind of hazardous? Hands have very tiny bones, i have to imagine it's easy for someone to hurt themselves in that game.Painless_Cry wrote: i like handball and i'm planning to practice it

I can answer you properly, I´ve played handball for many years:
most of the injuries are not in hands, but in the back because of the shoots to goal, and of course, the shoulders. Think that a good shoot can have a speed about 140 kms/hour, with a ball rounding the 600 grs weight (male). the movements you have to do to skip the defenders, to jump, to shoot, are really fast and strong, it´s a sport which resumes the primal activities of mankind: running, jumping, shooting. But is a really technic sport, you have to learn and practice a lot of theory if you want to play it well, and also the training must be hard. In 10 years, I had problems with the knees, the left shoulder, ( I am left handed) although I use the right hand really good and I can shoot with the right arm, and, specially,the ankles! But is a nice sport, with a lot of contact, and there´s no violence in it. It´s a strong sport, but not agressive. You have to play hard, but the violence is really punished by the regulations.

You must know Jari Litmanen then? He's one of my soccer-heroes. He has done much for Ajax in the past. :banana1:Warrior wrote:I just love to watch and play soccer, played it since I was 6 (actually I was 6 months old when I was on a football pitch for the first time) and I won't quit it unless I'm really really seriously injured.
I like to watch almost any sport there is (hockey, american football, rugby, tennis, badminton, curling etc.etc. ) but soccer is the only game I really enjoy playing.
