French handball is a fast-paced team sport played indoors, where two teams of seven players each aim to score goals by throwing a ball into the opposing team's net. The game is played on a rectangular court, and players can use any part of their body above the knee to control the ball. Matches consist of two 30-minute halves, and the team with the most goals at the end wins. Originating in Europe, handball has gained popularity in many countries, including France, where it is governed by the French Handball Federation. The sport emphasizes teamwork, agility, and strategy, making it an exciting spectacle for players and fans alike.
