Fast. Physical. Airborne.
Welcome to NSW Handball.
Whether you're a seasoned pro or have never touched a resin-covered ball in your life, there's a place for you on the court.
This Isn't Your Average Weekend Sport.
Forget standing around waiting for the ball. Handball is the fastest team sport on two legs, a high-octane mix of basketball's pacing, rugby's physicality, and water polo's aerial acrobatics (just without the water).
Since the lights went down on the Sydney 2000 Olympics, a fiercely dedicated community has kept the courts buzzing across New South Wales. We play hard, we cheer loud, and we are very proud of our roots at the Sydney Olympic Park Sports Halls.
Whether you grew up playing in Europe or you’re a local Aussie who has never touched a resin-covered ball in your life, you belong here.
