Handball is a ball game originated in Germany. Anyone who has ever played handball knows that handball is basically like a mixture of basketball and football. Handball is similar to basketball, not only because one of the reasons is that everyone needs to use their hands to play, but also because in the development process of handball, some rules were transformed from the rules of basketball. At the end of the 19th century, games similar to handball appeared in Czechoslovakia, Germany, Denmark and other countries. In 1917, Hazel, a physical education teacher in Berlin, Germany, designed a group game for women, which stipulated that athletes could only pass or catch the ball with their hands, and the bodies of both parties were not allowed to come into contact. In 1919, another physical education teacher in Berlin, Schelenz, improved Heizer's game and stipulated that the ball carrier could run three steps before passing the ball, allowing physical contact between the two sides. The rules of the competition were formulated in 1920. In 1925, Germany and Austria held the first international handball match. Later it was gradually carried out in various countries around the world. The first World Men's Handball Championship was held in 1928, and the World Women's Handball Championship has been held since 1957. The handball competition initially had 11 players per team, also known as eleven-a-side handball. In 1965, it was changed to 7 athletes per team. Men's and women's handball were included as Olympic events in 1936 and 1976 respectively.
