TexasRachel Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Explain handball to me It looks like a soccer/basketball hybrid. But it's in the Olympics. I'm glad the announcers know what they're talking about because I have no clue what's going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 My dh loves handball and used to play as a teen. Yes, it's like soccer played with your hands. He says it's super fun! My obscure sport (or at least one I didn't know was in the olympics) is canoeing. I don't even know if I spelled that correctly! I knew about rowing, but not canoing. (There I spelled it both ways so I'd only be wrong once!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandamom Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 We use to play handball in middle and high school gym class. I think it is a blast. I didn't think it was still an Olympic sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acablue Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 I played handball in high school, but it didn't qualify as a varsity sport. Yet, it's in the olympics. :glare: I had no idea taekwondo was in the olympics. :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokotg Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 I saw the gold medal handball match in Atlanta in 1996 (the scalper was selling the tickets really cheap!). Croatia won. But I still have no idea what the rules are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
