@@LifesGoodG well you have 2/4/6.... squares. And you stand in a square and have to bounce the ball once in your square and have it lend in another square. If you don't bounce it in your square, its a fool, if it bounces more than once in your square its doubles, if the handball touches the line then its lines and therefore play on.
I have played racquetball for years and have tried handball a few times but the hand-eye coordination is harder than it looks. Much respect to you guys!
I grew up in NYC, handball courts always packed from sun up to sun down in the city. The ball use to cost 25 cents, they lasted a day or two before they split open. You could wait for hours to challenge someone for a game if you didn't get to the park early. Great game, the best players are lighting fast and often scrap knuckles or palms on the concrete trying to make a shot. Best cardio workout you can get. Try playing this game for 2 or 3 hours on a sweltering 90 degree day in July! You will stay trim!
That's actually Gaelic Handball which has been played in Ireland for decades. The Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) is an official league that promotes such games, it's a pretty big league and community.
“Wallball/Handball is the greatest sport on Earth,very intense,very physical and it keeps you in superb shape,definitely the sport everyone should be playing.”
Bro you're not lying I played handball in 3 parks for a whole summer or ly bringing water with me I was 300 pounds when I started and I ended up at 185 pounds when it was time to go back yo school the cardio alone is super intense
I grew up in Queens and, 40 now, and I recall playing "American" handball and "Chinese" handball. In American handball you had to hit the ball directly on the wall; in Chinese style, we had to bounce it first. Any other New Yorkers remember this?
i grew up in the bronx watching my parents play this for years , they played every weekend with friends in games of 2 , it was intense and pretty cool to see. Now I'm 19 and live in orlando and no one here knows anything.
Do what you do , because you love doing it. If you do something because you think it's better than what someone else does, or you think that someone else's passions aren't as good at yours, then you are already behind and losing in life.

This is a variation of games played in latin america, ireland, england and the basque region in spain, and france. The game known as handball in the united states was brought to the u.s. by irish immigrants in the mid 1800s and was called gaelic handball. Americans have been playing handball ever since. Its a lot older than the team sport known as handball in europe, which has only been around since the early to mid 1900s. there are many variation of handball in the united states, specifically 4 wall, 3 wall and 1 wall. Handball or a similar game in Ireland has been around since the 1500s.
***** I had completely forgotten about that handball lol. I was thinking the handball that you usually play in schools small rubber high bounce balls in squares
Handball shown in this video has been around for a long time. It is a very tough sport you have no racquet which extends your reach and the palm of your hand is much smaller than the sweet spot on a tennis or racquet ball racquet. I believe that the ball is similar to a racquet ball but slightly smaller and harder. It is also painful until you get used to it.
I played in Bangladesh at St. Gregory's High School Dhaka since 1975 to till 1983 till complete my SCC year. We had total 3 courts that time & it was a great fun to play Handball, still i missed that game & i never found this any where at Bangladesh even i lived in Sydney Australia but did not see any handball court there i really missed this game very much. wish i could make my own in my home someday.....
wow man, this is slightly different from handball in queensland Australia - come down man and show us your stuff and we can show you ours - thousands of kids play Australian handballs every lunch and this will be an awesome learning experience.
I’d love to introduce my version of this game to the world. We played it when were kids in school in California. It’s major difference with the “normal” version is it’s full contact and the ball is larger and softer, allowing for harder strikes and more chances for players to utilize erratic deliveries and make the ball do some funky things. Also it has to bounce at least once before you hit it, and bounce at least once on its way back to the wall. If anyone’s interested in learning more let me know!
hell yeah ! this sport comes from the basque country , we call it esku pilota ,we play it with a ball made out of leather and a stone inside of it ! i never played it with a rubber one, in here we have a line in the wall and if the ball goes lower than that is a point for the other player. i didn't know this sport was played in america, quite interesting.
Idk what kind of handball that is, but the handball we play in AUS is a bit different. We have squares and in a 1v1 match up, the two competitors get in a square and bounce the ball to each other, using powershots and stuff to get them out, you lose if the ball bounces twice in your square, if the ball goes out of the square or if you simply miss it.
When I was in elementary school, we'd play a game similar to this. Except we called it "Wall Ball." We used the same ball as these guys but we'd THROW it against a wall. If somebody caught the ball, then the thrower was out. But if the person catching dropped the ball, the thrower had to run and touch the wall. The catcher (if ball was dropped) had to peg the runner(original thrower) before they touched the wall. It was lit.
Ronold Cledor Thats interesting. What's also interesting is how children from around the world who have no connection to each other come up with the same behaviors, slang, and games.
When I was at high school here in England in the 80s we played this and yes we called it handball. Great game. all you need is two people, a cheap ball and the side of a building. The only difference is we would have a limit to how high up the wall you could go.
lmfao @ all these haters outside the U.S. Yes, it has the same name as other sports and may have been inspired by another sport, doesn't mean it's not it's own sport.
Back in 1960's Brooklyn - when I was 13 yrs old - I was unbeatable at handball. I played about 15 games per day and was on the school team. We played with spalding balls. I would be at the school handball court an hour before class and play several games; then at lunch time it was back on the handball court for another hour. After school, more handball. Everyday.
Brandon Cosme maybe in the US in Europe it is pretty Big. Biggest Sport after Football. you should watch some videos, it is pretty intense. interesting to watch aswell since there are no long breaks
My favorite sport i played single or double back in the days late 80s thru early 90s in the BRONX. Those were my good old days. R.I.P. David Santiago (brother in law) taught me well and played a heck of a game.
Jarlath Leonard I did not mean to be rude just imparting what i know.Yes its irish.In fact .Not promoted right in this country.Its never on RTE ,sometimes on tg4,but it needs to be promoted better.For the world championships in ireland a few years ago they presented the game very well .City west was kind of transformed into the center court of handball.
The version I played had to bounce on the ground before hitting the wall. If the ball is hit straight to the wall without bouncing off the ground first, it's called direct and the next person re-serves
"is bigger than you think" Seeing this video pop up in my reccomended and reading the title, this is the first time i've heard of Handball outside of Elementary school gym class.
Exactly, this game derives from Gaelic handball, which was similar to a sport played in ancient Egypt. This really is the oldest sport, and the first true Handball game.
I'm from queens. I used to stay in Bushwick growing up so there was handball games on every other court. This was the handball I grew up on so learning that there was another game called handball was mind boggling.
In cuba we play handball combined with baseball, we have the 3 bases plus home base we walk to 1 run to 2 walk to 3 and run for home,we use only 4 people 1 in each base plus the shortstop,amazing game 👌🏻
***** Yes ,but i am not sure there is any danger of that game making it to the olympics and being confused with handball.I know of a woman involved in handball in ireland who is trying to get it into the olympics.They are number of associations that govern handball and there are coming together to try and get into the olympics and wallball is the name they are going to use.Outside the olympics they call the sport handball again.
+Ihavejust Roastedu and then theres redbutt where you have to hit the player to get him out, and thats why handball got banned in my school in any form :p
Loved this game growing up in Long Island. Can’t tell you how many times we would look for change to go buy a ball and play. Wish it was in more of the us. Moved to NC and we don’t have any courts.
The thing is that it is not as big of a deal as this seems to be, and i dont like the fact that the nyc version could be an "olympic sport" before the other is even consider
The modern game of handball originated in Ireland and Scotland. The earliest written record of a handball game is in the town statutes of Galway, which in 1527 forbade the playing of ball games against the walls of the town. On the west coast of Ireland, Galway had many trading links with Spain, especially the Basque regions, where the similar game of Pelota is played. It is highly likely that one game is derived from or influenced by the other. Irish immigrants brought the game to many countries in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. It is still played in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Wales and England.
I remember in middle school we played a similar game but with different rules, if you didn't hit the wall or the ball it's you and hits the ground then you have to run and touch the wall before someone picks it up and throws it all the wall before you get there. The person that got you out got one chance to then hit you with the ball. I ended up running into the wall and chipping my tooth which quickly ended the game at my school...
In Los angels we played a game called suicide. You throw the ball at the wall and someone has to catch it, if they drop it, run and touch the wall because everybody would start bombing on you...painful game.
This is not handball!! The original game is called "Basque pelot" and it's play in The Basque Country (Spain). Come here to play basque pelot!! Handball is a copy of Basque Pelot!
+xXabiAlbiXx A estos los traes al Pais Vasco y no duran un asalto, con esa pelotita nose donde está la complejidad del juego....que yo hacía eso con 4 años jajajaja
Basque "Pelota" describes a number of court sports using a racket a bat or ones hand this sport is hand pelota or if your English it is called Fives a game developed by public school boys were you hit a ball against a wall using your bear hand there are two types Eaton Fives and Rugby Fives
Anyone from NY can tell you what Handball is. Mad popular in the 80's and even more so today. There are courts everywhere from NYC to the end of Long Island.
Marco Couto lol this is just ghetto. I play handball with a playground ball and you hit it on the ground and it bounces off the wall. I have nevver seen this handball before it is very wierd
Marco Couto shit never new it was "handball", growing up out here in the Southern California it was just something to pass up time. Kids new it more as a prison sport... we just didn't have money when we were kids to buy recreational balls for actual sports
Marco Couto we don't go around checking other countries to see if names are the same. It's not a huge deal bro relax. Different cultures have different names.
I actually played this in junior high. But we played it differently. So instead of hitting the ball, we would catch the ball and whip it back at the wall. If you got hit with the ball during or after, you were out so you had to look both ways
Wait this isn't hanball ... oh yea there we see the american cultural imperialism (they did the same with football) : take an european sport : pelote basque à main nu/rugby then change it a bit, give it another european sport name and make it american : handball/football there you have it, it's now american. American culture is so great !!
Handball is the shit I live in staten and I always hear people talkin " yo go to Bronx or Manhattan if u want a real game" so when I go to college in the city, I can tell I'll always be on the courts during my lunch
In basque country we have plaied this in the 13th century. This invented in France and is played in a lot of countries in many different ways but in Basque Country is so popupar.
You're thinking, "Oh a ball and a wall and you hit the ball at the wall, haha that's stupid". You honestly have no idea. This requires high fitness and skill. This is also one variation of the sport. Its derived from Handball in Ireland. Look up Paul Brady playing someone as an example in GAA Handball.
Well, making a quick research I have just read that this kind of handball was played in Egypt, so I guess the cultural dispute is pointless. But anyway and just for the record, basque culture is pretty old as well, it is one of the oldest ones in Europe, and here this sport goes back to the 1200s. And its variation with a basket (jaialai) became very popular in the states, specially in florida. Cheers to all gaelic fellows!
we play a completely different version of handball in Australia. I was pretty suprised when i watched this.
Hassan Khan YES!! gotta love then slogs, twisting!

The earliest written record of a handball game is in the town statutes of Galway, which in 1527 forbade the playing of ball games against the walls of the town. On the west coast of Ireland, Galway had many trading links with Spain, especially the Basque regions, where the similar game of Pelota is played. It is highly likely that one game is derived from or influenced by the other. Irish immigrants brought the game to many countries in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. It is still played in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Wales and England.
I remember in middle school we played a similar game but with different rules, if you didn't hit the wall or the ball it's you and hits the ground then you have to run and touch the wall before someone picks it up and throws it all the wall before you get there. The person that got you out got one chance to then hit you with the ball. I ended up running into the wall and chipping my tooth which quickly ended the game at my school...
preeety sure thats not handball i remember a similar game but we also played handball theyre two different games
Ruben same but we called it wallball
Ruben yeah we called that Red Wall or Red Ass
In Los angels we played a game called suicide.
You throw the ball at the wall and someone has to catch it, if they drop it, run and touch the wall because everybody would start bombing on you...painful game.
We called this butts up in my hood
i played this all day everyday in prison hahah
I played all day n juvenile hall lmao 😂
Me too buddy
😳
Who always play handball in school with his friend?
this game is legit! me and my friend thought wemade up this 10 years ago! this is cool!
This is not handball!! The original game is called "Basque pelot" and it's play in The Basque Country (Spain). Come here to play basque pelot!! Handball is a copy of Basque Pelot!
+Dack PAC Ya te digo macho, con pelotas de goma de mierda encima jajajajaja que vengan aqui a que sufran coño!
+xXabiAlbiXx A estos los traes al Pais Vasco y no duran un asalto, con esa pelotita nose donde está la complejidad del juego....que yo hacía eso con 4 años jajajaja
Basque "Pelota" describes a number of court sports using a racket a bat or ones hand this sport is hand pelota or if your English it is called Fives a game developed by public school boys were you hit a ball against a wall using your bear hand there are two types Eaton Fives and Rugby Fives
No this is handball stupid. And i aint coming out to no other country. Usa is the best!
Anyone from NY can tell you what Handball is. Mad popular in the 80's and even more so today. There are courts everywhere from NYC to the end of Long Island.
this is a sport played in the Basque Country called "eskupilota" (esku=hand, pilota=small ball) in our language Euskara.
I used to play this in 4th and 5th grade then the teachers banned it because too many kids got hit in the fae
I remember playing this when I used to live in the Bronx, it's pretty fun tbh
handball is a actual sport, and it looks nothing like this.
americans love to just name their sports after others with no little respect dont they?
Marco Couto lol this is just ghetto. I play handball with a playground ball and you hit it on the ground and it bounces off the wall. I have nevver seen this handball before it is very wierd
Marco Couto shit never new it was "handball", growing up out here in the Southern California it was just something to pass up time. Kids new it more as a prison sport... we just didn't have money when we were kids to buy recreational balls for actual sports
Marco Couto
Marco Couto we don't go around checking other countries to see if names are the same. It's not a huge deal bro relax. Different cultures have different names.
Marco Couto We get it Brazil is bad and they would love to be As Badass as America
used to play in upstate NY and always dreamed of being good enough to get on those courts and play. someday maybe..awesome videos...NY rep
So it's squash without racquets. It's interesting to see all the different version of "hand ball"
It sure it
this is better than bumass squash
Greatest sport, closest thing to martial arts, hand to hand combat for sure, everyone should try
I actually played this in junior high. But we played it differently. So instead of hitting the ball, we would catch the ball and whip it back at the wall. If you got hit with the ball during or after, you were out so you had to look both ways
So NYC is taking credit for a game that has been in Los Angeles for many years already?!
word.
This sport started in Ireland I think! It's part of the GAA
It's an Irish sport you gobshite
Paddy Walsh
You think, or you know?
All i know is that the Hispanics in prison have been playing this for many decades.

Best handball training facilities are state prisons.
Been playing this since i was a kid. We called it Patball in England i guess around the world theres different names for it.

Unai Alberro horixe!!
Unai Alberro ahi ahi
Unai Alberro ahi, bien dicho
People have being doing this in the Vasque country, North of Spain, for a looong time (even today is a big sport)
Wait this isn't hanball ... oh yea there we see the american cultural imperialism (they did the same with football) : take an european sport : pelote basque à main nu/rugby then change it a bit, give it another european sport name and make it american : handball/football there you have it, it's now american. American culture is so great !!
Leorio it originated in Ireland so... FUCK OFF?
HA! Rugby, Soccer(football), and American Football all stemmed from the SAME sport, and separated at the same time.
-West
***** lol
It's called handball because it's played with your hands. No one over here even knows what your sissy euro version is.
Connor Appel so much ignorance...
I am from the basque country and we play this game but in a high level. The sport is called eskupilota on the basque country

@@yoleyola8329 Olympic handball dates to 1917 Gaelic, American And Basque All have ancient origins
Handball is the shit I live in staten and I always hear people talkin " yo go to Bronx or Manhattan if u want a real game" so when I go to college in the city, I can tell I'll always be on the courts during my lunch
I've peen playing this game since I've discovered porn 😑😂
Handporn?
In basque country we have plaied this in the 13th century. This invented in France and is played in a lot of countries in many different ways but in Basque Country is so popupar.
most definitely not more intense than any other sport out there

Malaquias Popocateptl grandoise minds and highten exaggeration

wallball...
Handball is an official Gaelic game in Ireland, class to see its big in other parts too
LOL... "most intense sport ever"
Go to a tournament in NYC and you'll know.
You're thinking, "Oh a ball and a wall and you hit the ball at the wall, haha that's stupid". You honestly have no idea. This requires high fitness and skill. This is also one variation of the sport. Its derived from Handball in Ireland. Look up Paul Brady playing someone as an example in GAA Handball.
love handball. champion many consecutive years. great fitness sport.
Search for the original sport: pelota vasca. The ball is more like a small baseball instead of rubber.
Brutal I played with no gloves for about an hour and my hand was very swollen and red by the end. So much so I couldn't even make a fist.
cant really say that pelota vasca is the original sport when hand ball is a traditional Irish sport played since 1527 in Ireland
Well, making a quick research I have just read that this kind of handball was played in Egypt, so I guess the cultural dispute is pointless. But anyway and just for the record, basque culture is pretty old as well, it is one of the oldest ones in Europe, and here this sport goes back to the 1200s. And its variation with a basket (jaialai) became very popular in the states, specially in florida. Cheers to all gaelic fellows!
The main sport for teenagers back in my high school days. Can't believe it's a sports trend now. This goes way back to 08' to my senior year 11'
this is not handball
Now this is handball! The other video I saw was soccer with hands 🤦♂️
