Handball

Handball is like squash but without the racquets

The Handball Club is one of the longest established clubs in the University and competes both domestically and on the international stage. It is a fast traditional sport requiring high levels of fitness, played as singles or doubles in the handball alley and one-wall handball courts in UCD Sport. Handball is like squash but without the racquets.

The club competes in three disciplines i.e. 40X20, 60X30 and one-wall courts. The club has enjoyed much success in recent years, including an individual gold at the World Collegiate Handball Championships in America. Beginners are always welcome, with training Monday and Wednesday nights.
