Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Game of Hand Ball and How to Play It Although the game of handball is generally conceded to be of Irish origin, and has been played with more or less fervor throughout the little green isle for a century at least, the invigorating pastime has, within a very recent date, become a great favorite with the lovers of sport in America, and is fast being incorporated as a regular athletic exercise at all of our prominent clubs and educational institutions. The cause of its increasing popularity is easily explained. While it requires time, patience, and considerable skill before the game can be fully mastered, the method is so simple and the rules so easy to comprehend that even the beginner feels himself thoroughly at home in the court. As a healthful and exhilarating exercise there is no game extant that develops a person's physical quality so well as handball. The best evidence of this is the splendid condition of those who are now regular patrons of the game. It calls into play every muscle in the body, will tend to teach one to look quickly, while the running that is necessary will certainly improve the wind if anything does. As a means of placing a baseball player into condition for his seasons work, the old Irish game, as it is generally termed, presents opportunities not afforded by any other exercise. In the earlier days of the National Baseball League it was quite a common occurrence to see its players practising at handball. Some of the crack players then were Pitcher James Devlin, George Bechtel, of the old Atnletics; Nat Hicks, the famous catcher of the Mutuals of New York; Robert Ferguson, of tne Atlantics; James McCormick and Michael J. Kelly, of the Chicagos. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Join the growing number of people who are discovering the fun and excitement of team handball! With more points scored than soccer and more continuous action than basketball, team handball has been a popular international sport for years, and now its popularity is on the rise in the United States. No wonder--this fast-paced team sport lets players take full advantage of their running, jumping, and throwing abilities. Written by two former U.S. Olympic players and expert coaches, Team Handball: Steps to Success presents 12 easy-to-follow steps to becoming an accomplished player. Each step is an easy transition from the one before. The first steps provide a solid foundation of basic skills and concepts. As players progress, they’ll learn how to combine these skills to attack the goal, decide when to pass and when to shoot, and support their teammates when attacking and defending. The final steps show how teammates can organize as a unit in attack and on defense and how good communication contributes to the effectiveness of the team. Team Handball: Steps to Success features 62 drills that develop players’ shooting, dribbling, passing, and catching skills. The drills come with performance goals and a list of key points to remember in executing them. Plus, many drills include instructions for increasing or decreasing the difficulty of the drill. By studying the book’s 187 illustrations and following the simple instructions, players will learn • why each skill or concept is important, • the keys to proper technique, • how to analyze and correct common errors, • how to practice the skills in game-like situations, and • how to check their progress. The book’s appendixes explain the basic rules of the game and show how to modify a given floor space to create a team handball court. Part of the highly popular Steps to Success Activity Series, this book will help players learn the game quickly and provide the foundation for their future development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handball and How to Play It The game of handball is undoubtedly of Celtic origin, and the proof of the assertion rests with the fact that wherever this nomadic race has set foot only there will be found traces of the pastime. The earliest authentic mention of handball, according to the annals of Ireland, occurs in the year 3370 A. M., or 1,879 years prior to the Christian Era. This was in connection with the Tailten games, inaugurated by Ere, the last king of the Firbolgs, in honor of his daughter-in-law Tailte. As to the particular style in which the game was played it is now impossible to accurately determine, but from the meagre accounts of the early chroniclers no walls were used, but the ball was tossed from "hand to hand,'' and the "Book of Leinster" mentions it as being one of the prominent events on the Tailten programme. These games were celebrated each year, and even with the slow methods of communication they were not long in becoming the theme of inhabited Europe. And warriors flocked from every quarter to take part in the running, jumping, the feat of gae bolga, or throwing the belly dart; the roth cleas or wheel feat; chariot racing and other eents too numerous to mention. To such an extent was the spirit of emulation created among the visitors that in the thirteenth century before Christ, or some five hundred years after the inauguration of Tailten, the Greeks organized the Olympian games. Of the advent and subsequent success of this imitation of the Celtic festival it is needless to speak, but it was the first introduction into Greece of handball.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One can hardly expect to become a champion over night by merely reading a book on handball although it is possible that he considerably augment his ability with its guidance and serious application. In this instance, the source, which can be read in an hour or so, should first be covered carefully in order to become better acquainted with the game and with the philosophy of the would-be instructor. As the book is reviewed in subsequent lessons, the student should stop frequently to ponder over his errors committed on the court, to "act out" new fundamentals as they are explained, to think through certain suggestions pertaining to strategy and to jot down a tentative routine for his next practice session. In short, the author would like to volunteer as the reader's instructor for the next few months.
