Street Handball rules in Ukrainian

Правила вуличного гандболу

My name is Khimiak Andrii.

I’m from Uzhhorod but now live near Lviv, Ukraine 🇺🇦 

I’m Physical education teacher in school.

  • Why did you choose to be part of SHI?:

There were handball traditions in Lviv, but over the past 10 years, handball has almost completely disappeared from schools. Teachers stopped introducing students to this sport. Although Lviv currently has two women’s and one men’s teams that play in the highest divisions of our championship. I consider it my mission to introduce our teachers to street handball, because I consider it the best option for playing during and after lessons 

  • How can you help Street Handball International to increase street handball in your local area and get new players?: 

Has already started a training course for street handball teachers and coaches in Lviv and the region 
Held 2 street handball tournaments for boys  who born in 2012-2011 and 2010-2009

And other in region 

  • When and where will you host your first training session or street handball event?: 

May 6th 2022 – We held a street handball training seminar for physical education teachers of the Sykhiv district of Lviv 🤾 together…. – See more facbook post here>>

  • Are you ready to use the Street Handball fair play rules?: (Play fair with no physical contact. No dribbling. Max. 3(4) steps. 4 vs. 4 players less or more. Goalkeeper takes part in the attack. Played against 2 goals. With two goal areas zones.)  

Yes, and thats easy rules to play 

  • What is the best with Street Handball fair play rules?
     – No dribbling 
  • Other things you want to say? 

Street Handball is a great activity for children and, as practice shows, for adults. Although all coaches are initially skeptical of the concept itself, after the demonstration they realize that it is the most optimal form of learning the game for schoolchildren. I hope that one day we will be able to present a team of schoolchildren from Ukraine to participate in the international Street Handball tournament and get to know you personally!
