Rukomet

Rukomet is the term for handball in certain Slavic languages, referring to a team sport played by two teams of seven players each, who aim to score goals by throwing a ball into the opposing team’s net. The game is played on a rectangular court with a goal at each end and involves a combination of passing, dribbling, and shooting. Each team has a goalkeeper who defends the goal. Rukomet emphasizes teamwork, strategic play, and physical fitness, and is governed by specific rules that dictate fouls, scoring, and player conduct. It is popular in various countries and has a strong following in Europe, particularly in Balkan nations.
