Handball Club Equipment
The club equipment for handball includes what is used by the whole group rather than just one player: tactical boards Select and Kempa for discussions, a tactical case Softee Diamond and a coach Sporti notebook for preparing sessions, as well as our guidelines for choosing goals, nets, cones and markers, from the municipal gym to the club hall.
All the equipment of a club, at your fingertips.
Tactical board, case and notebook: the coach's tools
The tactical board is used to show rather than explain: a layered defence or a crossover between backs is better understood with pieces moved in front of the group. The Select and Kempa boards represent the handball court, its area and the nine-metre line, and are used with markers or magnetic pieces according to the models. The case Softee Diamond contains a small board and its accessories in a pouch that fits into the bag for timeouts, and the coach Sporti spiral notebook keeps track of sessions and team compositions.
The rest of the club space
The club space also includes:
The entire universe is gathered on the club space page.
Goals and nets: dimensions and mandatory fixing
The handball goal measures three metres wide by two metres high inside, with posts of eight centimetres in section painted in alternating bands of two contrasting colours. In France, the decree of 4 June 1996 sets the safety requirements for handball goals, which must be fixed or stabilised to never tip over, and the European standard EN 749 specifies stability tests. The net, stretched between the frame and the back support, catches the ball without it bouncing straight back onto the court; we check its mesh and ties before each resumption.
Pump, manometer, cones: maintenance and training sessions
An over-inflated ball bounces badly and is difficult to control, while an under-inflated ball loses speed when shot. The pump with double action and its needle, used with a manometer, allows you to adjust each ball to the specified pressure near the valve before the session. The cones and cups delineate passing drills, ball movement lanes or shooting areas, and can be stacked in a bag. The club's storage area benefits from being organized by category, with an inventory kept up to date at each resumption, to know what is missing before the first training sessions.
Good deals
Good bargains can also be found in the good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped in 24h are prepared and dispatched within 24 hours. The highlights of the year follow a steady order: the Black Friday at the end of autumn, the end-of-year holidays, the winter sales, the French Days in spring, then the summer sales and back to school.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size tactical board should I choose?
A large wall-mounted or freestanding board is used for pre-match talks in the changing room. For the bench and timeouts, a pocket-sized format or a case like the Softee Diamond can be held in one hand and easily stored in the coach's bag.
How do I properly erase a tactical board?
Use dry-erase markers and a soft cloth or a dedicated brush, never an abrasive product that dulls the surface. Occasionally cleaning with household alcohol removes old, ingrained marks.
What is a handball coaching notebook used for?
It centralizes the planning of sessions, attendance, compositions, and match observations. The Sporti notebook, designed for handball, allows you to draw exercises and track a group's progress throughout the year.
How many bibs should I have for training?
Count at least two colours, with as many bibs as there are players per team at training, which is seven to ten of each colour. A third colour allows for organising games with three teams or identifying a joker.
What equipment to set up at the scoring table?
A match timer, match sheet, team timeout cards, and a score display form the basics. A whistle or a table horn signals to the referees an irregular change or the end of a period.
