What is the Christmas Handball Balls category for?

This page makes your life easier if you're wondering:

• “Training ball or match ball, what should I pick as a gift?”

Instead of searching the entire site, you'll find handball balls already geared towards gifts here: practical for the field, suitable for different age categories, and for all levels of play.

Who are these handball balls for gifting intended for?

You can use this category if you want to please:

• A child or teenager who plays in a club and wants their own ball to practice at home;
• A casual player who enjoys playing with friends or family;
• An experienced player who will appreciate a quality match ball;
• A goalkeeper or a coach who always needs new balls for training sessions.

How to choose the ball size for your gift?

Size is a key point to ensure the ball is truly usable. Generally:

• Size 0 / mini: perfect for the youngest, handball introduction or a fun small gift.
• Size 1: often used for youth categories and some women's categories.
• Size 2: intermediate format, very common among teenagers and many female players.
• Size 3: men's adult size ball, for senior categories and some larger builds.

If you know the age and category of the person, you can easily choose the appropriate size. If in doubt, size 2 is often a good compromise for a teenager or a female player.

Training ball or match ball: what to choose for Christmas?

The right type of ball depends on how the person plays:

• Training ball: ideal if the person trains often, plays in a club, or wants a ball to practice at home. They are designed to be sturdy, comfortable, and easy to use on a daily basis.
• Match ball: perfect for an experienced player or enthusiast who wants a quality feel and bounce very close to competition. It’s a strong gift that makes an impression.
• Fun or mini balls: great for the youngest or as a small complementary gift, to play anywhere.

With or without resin: how not to go wrong?

Many halls now ban the use of glue. If you’re unsure what the person uses or what their club allows, you can:

• Prefer a ball without resin or with natural grip, which plays well without glue;
• Check the indications on the product sheet (resin compatibility or not);
• Choose a versatile training ball, that works in most gyms.

This way, your Christmas gift will remain usable in a variety of situations.

Frequently Asked Questions about Handball Balls for Christmas

What ball should I give to a child starting handball?
For a child or young beginner, choose a ball of the appropriate size (often size 0 or 1 depending on age) with a rather soft surface and good grip. The goal is for it to be easy to catch, throw, and dribble.

Is a ball a good gift for a player who is already equipped?
Yes, an additional ball is always useful: for practicing at home, for warm-ups, for sessions “with friends.” A quality match ball can also be a real bonus for a player who is already equipped.

What if I don’t know the exact size they need?
You can base it on their age or discreetly ask a loved one or teammate. If you have no information at all, size 2 is often a good choice for teenagers and many female adult profiles, while size 3 is more suited to male seniors.

Why give a ball rather than another type of equipment?
A handball is a simple gift, immediately usable, and it directly reminds them of the pleasure of playing. It’s an item that serves in matches, training, and even in the garden or living room to work on their skills.
