OFFICIATING
“Fair play” and officiating Throw to (re)start the game
It is the two referees who are in
charge of ending the game. Their
task is to maintain the “fair play”
principle. In handball there are five different
throws defined by the rules to
(re)start the game, which are the
throw off, free throw, goalkeeper
throw, 7metre throw and
throw-in.
Progressive punishment is given to
the players who do not follow the
rules of “fair play” or who violate the
rules in any other way.
A 7 metre throw is given when a
clear scoring chance is denied.
A throw-off is taken at the
beginning of each half of the game
and after a goal has been scored.
