Handball depends on gripping and throwing the ball with one hand, so a ball that fits the player’s hand matters more than in most ball games. The junior size lets younger pupils hold it securely for overarm passes and shots, practise bounce passes and two-handed catches, and dribble while moving, before they progress to full team games.
Teachers typically start with passing in pairs and small-sided games with small goals, then add simple rules such as limited steps with the ball. Because the ball suits all types of playgrounds, lessons can run on a hard court or an open school ground. Inflate it with a pump and one of the supplied needles before first use, moistening the needle so the valve is not damaged.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited supplies this junior handball under the ScienceLab name from its base in Ambala, Haryana. Primary and middle schools often order it together with a pump, whistles and markers so that a new handball unit can start straight away, and we can quote those items in the same reply.
