Handball is a fast-paced indoor team sport that involves passing, throwing and shooting a ball to score goals against the opposing team. The game requires quick movement, close player interaction and rapid changes of direction. When taking part abroad, handball is usually played on an amateur basis, whether during organised training sessions or structured non-professional matches.

ActivitySure travel insurance can cover amateur handball overseas, including practice, training and organised amateur matches, provided participation meets the policy conditions. Although it is typically played in indoor sports halls, the speed and physical nature of the game mean injuries can still occur, making suitable travel insurance an important part of your trip planning.

Destination Insight

Where is popular to travel for handball?

Handball is particularly popular across Europe, with strong participation in countries such as Denmark, Germany and France. These destinations have well-established club systems and indoor facilities that support both local players and visiting teams.

Many travellers take part through organised training camps, friendly fixtures or community clubs while abroad, especially during sports-focused trips or exchange programmes.

Here's why handball travel insurance matters:

Handball involves frequent jumping, sudden stops and physical contact, which can lead to falls, collisions or joint injuries. Medical treatment abroad can be costly, and injuries may affect the rest of your trip. Travel insurance helps provide financial protection if you require treatment or assistance.

Helpful travel tips

Wear appropriate safety equipment, such as knee protection or supportive footwear, where recommended.
Always follow organiser instructions, match rules and guidance from coaches or referees.
Handle the ball properly to avoid finger or hand sprainsStay alert to other players to help avoid collisions.
Take extra care on indoor courts, particularly where surfaces may become slippery.
