Handball is a fast-paced team sport that combines physical strength, technical skill and tactical intelligence, making it one of the most exciting and passionate sports in the world. Since its origins in Europe in the early 20th century, handball has evolved into a beloved Olympic sport that is widely popular around the world, from exciting European tournaments to the World Cup and Olympic Games.
This dynamic sport requires a meticulously designed stadium to provide a safe and fair playing environment that allows players to showcase their best speed, skill and strength. At Technotrade Sports, we understand that quality is the key to outstanding performance, which is why we are committed to creating handball courts that meet the highest international standards and keep pace with the latest developments in this specialized field.
Creating a handball court is not only about determining the right dimensions, but also about choosing the right floor that ensures player safety and provides the perfect bounce of the ball, in addition to providing adequate lighting, proper ventilation, advanced safety systems, and other factors that contribute to an optimal playing experience. At Technotrade Sports, we offer complete handball court construction solutions, from design and planning to installation and maintenance, relying on our long experience and partnerships with the best global suppliers.
The needs of our clients in the field of handball court construction are as diverse as the industries and organizations we serve. Each client has specific requirements and goals, and we at Technotrade Sports pride ourselves on our ability to meet this wide variety of needs with customized and innovative solutions that take into account the nature of each project and its specific circumstances.
Professional sports clubs represent an important segment of our customers, as they seek to create handball fields that meet the highest international standards and provide the ideal environment for professional teams to train and compete. These clubs require courts that are dimensionally accurate, with high-quality flooring, advanced lighting systems that ensure optimal visibility for players, referees and spectators, as well as support facilities such as locker rooms and warm-up areas.
Educational institutions, from primary schools to universities, are another vital segment of our clientele. These organizations need multi-purpose handball courts that can be used for education, training, school and university competitions. The focus here is on safety, durability and the ability to withstand intensive use by students of different ages and levels, while keeping in mind the limited budgets of educational institutions.
Sports and recreation centers require handball courts that combine functionality and visual appeal. These courts are used for a variety of purposes including training, competitions, recreational events, and community programs. These centers need design flexibility that allows the court to be converted to other uses when needed, while maintaining the high standards of handball.
Investors in the sports sector are looking for handball stadiums that will generate economic returns by hosting competitions, events, training and commercial programs. These clients require comprehensive feasibility studies and designs that consider operational efficiency and minimize long-term maintenance costs, while ensuring high quality that attracts users and spectators.
Approved technical specifications for the handball court
The design and construction of handball stadiums is governed by strict specifications set by the International Handball Federation (IHF) to ensure the standardization of the game globally. At Technotrade Sports, we adhere to these standards meticulously to create professional stadiums that ensure a fair, safe and enjoyable playing experience for all participants.
A handball court is a rectangular shape with precisely defined dimensions. At 40 meters in length and 20 meters in width, these dimensions are fixed for all levels from amateur to professional. The pitch is meticulously planned to ensure these dimensions, with a safety zone of at least one meter around the pitch on all sides, and this distance increases to two meters behind the goal lines to ensure the safety of players during quick and sudden movements.
The handball field has several important areas and landmarks that define the rules of play and organize the movement of players. The goal area extends in a semicircle from the goal line by half a meter, and defines the 6-diameter area reserved for the goalkeeper that other players have no right to enter. The free-throw line, also known as the nine-meter line, is a dashed line one meter from the goal, from which play resumes after minor infractions.
The 7-meter line is a line that is one meter away from the goal, and is used for direct free kicks for serious infractions. The center line divides the field into two equal halves, while the substitution lines mark the areas where players enter and exit the field during the game.
The goal is the centerpiece of 3 handball courts, measuring one meter in width. The 2-meter-high goal is firmly anchored to the ground or fixed to the back wall to ensure its stability during intense play, with a strong and durable net that prevents the ball from passing and helps to clearly identify goals. The goal posts and goalposts should be made of strong, impact-resistant materials and covered with protective materials to ensure player safety.
Choosing the right materials and technologies is the cornerstone of creating premium handball courts that meet the highest international standards. At Technotrade Sports, we pride ourselves on our strategic partnerships with the world’s best manufacturers of sports flooring materials, ensuring that our customers receive the latest technology and the highest levels of quality and performance.
Acrylic flooring is a popular choice for multi-purpose courts, including handball courts. This flooring is characterized by its exceptional flexibility and high shock absorption capacity, which significantly reduces the risk of injuries and provides greater comfort for players during fast movements and high jumps. They are available in a wide range of bright and solid colors, allowing the creation of attractive and distinctive designs that reflect the identity of the club or organization.
Acrylic flooring is easy to maintain and clean, as it can be easily cleaned using traditional materials without the need for special equipment or complex chemicals. They are also highly resistant to weathering and UV rays, making them suitable for use in both outdoor and indoor playgrounds.
The Acrylic Rubber Roll System is an innovative solution that combines the benefits of natural rubber with advanced acrylic technologies. The system is suitable for both outdoor and indoor courts, offering great flexibility in application and use.
The high flexibility and exceptional shock-absorbing capacity of the system has a positive impact on athletes’ safety and comfort during play. These characteristics make the system particularly suitable for sports that require a lot of movement and frequent jumps.
The long life of an acrylic rubber roller system makes it an excellent economic investment, as it can serve for decades without the need for major repairs or replacement. This factor is especially important for projects that require a long-term return on investment.
The ability to paint the surface in attractive acrylic colors of choice allows the stadium to be customized to fit the visual identity of the project. This customization can include corporate colors and logos, reinforcing brand identity and creating a distinctive sporting environment.
PU MIX Tartan flooring consists of specialized rubber granules that give it high elasticity, shock absorption, and responsiveness. Ideal for stadiums that host professional and international competitions, it provides a fast, flat surface that improves player performance and reduces response times.
The tartan system features multiple layers that include a base layer of rubber granules blended with specialized SBR binders, a top layer of colored EPDM granules that provide the desired finish and functional properties. This advanced formulation ensures a homogeneous and durable surface that maintains its properties for many years even with intensive use, followed by a capping layer and finally a self-leveling sealer and a final Top Coat, a polyurethane coating that gives a flexible, durable, weatherproof and friction-resistant surface an aesthetic appearance, increases surface durability, and provides high slip resistance.
Tartan (polyurethane) flooring is the perfect choice of PU MIX urethane for courts that require the highest levels of performance and durability. This advanced technology provides an ideal surface for basketball thanks to its unique shock-absorbing properties and responsiveness required for athletic movements.
The tartan system (PU MIX 5) is up to two centimeters thick, providing an exceptional layer of protection for players and reducing the impact of shocks on the body. This extra thickness translates into greater comfort for players, especially during long practices and intense matches.
Technically speaking, PU MIX Tartan (polyurethane) flooring provides optimal ball bounce response, ensuring consistent performance throughout the court. This consistency of response is critical in basketball, where players rely on their ability to predict the behavior of the ball in different areas of the court.
Tartan (polyurethane) flooring is also characterized by its high PU MIX urethane resistance to abrasion and weathering, making it suitable for use on outdoor fields that are exposed to direct sunlight and weather fluctuations. It is also anti-slip, providing the necessary safety for players even in wet conditions.
Vinyl flooring is a modern and innovative option for indoor handball courts, combining high performance and affordability. It is characterized by its smooth and homogeneous surface that provides a perfect and consistent bounce of the ball throughout the court, as well as its excellent ability to resist abrasion and scratches and its ease of cleaning and maintenance.
Vinyl flooring comes with advanced technologies that include anti-bacterial and anti-fungal layers, making it ideal for use in indoor sports environments. It also features advanced anti-slip properties, providing excellent grip and safety for players during quick movements, sudden stops, and sharp changes in direction.
Parquet flooring remains the classic and preferred choice for many professional indoor handball courts. This type of flooring offers the traditional and authentic feel of basketball, with outstanding performance characteristics that make it the gold standard in many international tournaments.
At Technotrade Sports, we use specialized types of parquet wood that are specially treated for sports use, with advanced installation systems that ensure the required flexibility and shock absorption. The treated underlayment plays a crucial role in providing support and stability to the wooden surface, ensuring consistent performance and long-term durability.
Parquet flooring has the ability to provide a natural and comfortable response for players, improving performance and reducing fatigue. The aesthetically pleasing appearance of parquet flooring lends a classic and elegant feel to the field, enhancing the playing and viewing experience.
In terms of maintenance, wood floors require special and regular care to maintain their quality and performance. At Technotrade Sports, we offer comprehensive maintenance programs that ensure your hardwood floors stay in top condition for years to come.
At Technotrade Sports, we follow an integrated and thoughtful work methodology that ensures that every project is executed with the highest standards of quality and accuracy, from the initial idea to the final delivery and subsequent maintenance and support services. This advanced methodology ensures that the client’s vision is realized and their expectations are exceeded at every stage of the project.
Our journey with the client begins with a comprehensive and in-depth consultation session to understand their real needs, available budget, and the nature of the planned use of the playground. During this vital phase, our specialized team carefully studies the proposed site and analyzes the environmental, geographical, and climatic factors that may affect the design, implementation, and future use.
Based on this comprehensive information and careful analysis, our team of specialized engineers and experienced designers prepare a customized and detailed stadium design that takes into account all technical, aesthetic, functional and economic aspects. The initial design includes detailed high-definition 3D drawings that help the client visualize the final stadium, as well as comprehensive and detailed technical specifications covering all aspects of the project.
This critical phase includes the precise leveling of the ground and the preparation of the necessary and advanced infrastructure, including specialized excavation and backfilling works and the installation of advanced drainage systems and basic utility networks. In this important phase, we ensure that the site is fully prepared and optimally prepared to receive the specialized ground layers, making sure that the foundations are strong, stable and able to withstand all loads and pressures.
Sophisticated infrastructure work also includes installing advanced electrical and lighting systems, setting up specialized connection points for sports and technical equipment, and setting up proper ventilation and air conditioning systems if the stadium is indoors. All of these vital elements are planned and implemented according to the highest international engineering and safety standards.
The selected PVC floor layers are carefully installed (acrylic, tartan, parquet) using the latest technology and advanced equipment specialized in this field. This delicate and precise process is supervised by a team of highly trained and specialized technicians, certified by manufacturers, to ensure a flat, homogeneous and perfect surface that meets all technical and aesthetic requirements.
The sophisticated installation process involves several delicate sub-stages that include careful surface preparation, application of specialized base layers, precise application of the final coating, and final finishing, polishing, and calibration. Each of these stages is subjected to rigorous, multi-level quality checks to ensure full compliance with the required specifications and international standards.
After the floor installation is successfully completed, the pitch is laid out in the appropriate and approved colors according to the exact official dimensions approved by the International Handball Federation (IHF). This delicate phase also includes installing the goal with the correct specifications, setting up the customized changing areas, and installing all additional accessories and equipment required as per the project specifications and client’s requirements.
This important phase also includes the installation of state-of-the-art end lighting systems, electronic display and scoreboard systems if required, and all supporting facilities such as bench seating, coaches’ areas, and statistics tables. All these elements are installed and equipped according to the highest standards of quality, safety and functionality.
After all work is successfully completed and all final checks are passed, the playground is handed over to the client with the necessary comprehensive warranty certificates and detailed and comprehensive maintenance manuals. We also provide a specialized and detailed training program for the team in charge of the playground to ensure optimal use and proper and effective long-term maintenance.
We provide specialized and advanced regular maintenance services to ensure that the high quality of the playground and the safety of players and users are maintained in the long term.
