Form of workAbout Handball VIC Inc
Handball Victoria Inc. (HV) is the peak administrative body for the sports of (Olympic) Handball and Beach Handball in the state of Victoria. Our purpose is to govern, promote and develop handball into a sport for all Victorians.
Handball has been an Olympic sport since 1936, and has a significant presence in most other continents, and especially in Europe. Beach Handball, being a fairly young sport, hasn't yet got full Olympic status, but is quickly gaining momentum around the world.
Both fast-paced, action-filled and dynamic spectator sports, they have all the ingredients that Australians love in sport. At the moment, both sports are small, niche sports in Australia, but they have infinite potential to grow and become as loved and recognised here as they are in the rest of the world.
