Handball in Irish primary schools introduces young students to a dynamic, skillful sport that emphasizes hand-eye coordination, agility, and teamwork. Supported by the GAA (Gaelic Athletic Association), the program provides students with access to equipment, coaching, and inter-school competitions. Handball is easy to learn and play in a variety of spaces, making it accessible for schools with limited facilities. The sport promotes physical fitness, discipline, and social interaction, while allowing students to develop fundamental motor skills. Handball in schools nurtures a passion for physical activity and traditional Irish sports, helping to sustain a vital part of Ireland’s sporting heritage.
