Outstanding Construction

This is a grippy handball designed for years of rugged institutional use. Its 32-panel cover is hand stitched for added strength and durability. The grippy texture enhances players' chances of successful throwing and catching.

Balls are available in men's (7.3" dia) and women's (6.7" dia) sizes, both official sizes for gameplay. Use them to provide a more official/professional feel for in-class play and for handball tournaments.

15 Skill-Building PE Activities Using the GripPro Team Handballs

The GripPro Team Handballs are specifically designed for maximum grip and control. Featuring a textured cover and optimal size for easy handling, these balls are ideal for developing throwing, catching, dribbling, and passing skills in PE settings. What makes them unique is their tacky texture, which gives students better control and confidence, especially during fast-paced games. The set includes six handballs in Rainbow colors, allowing for color-coded team play. The following 15 activity ideas creatively integrate GripPro Handballs into games and challenges that teach fundamental movement skills and keep students actively engaged.

1. Rainbow Relay Pass: Teams run relay-style while passing the GripPro ball down the line—teaches locomotor movement and passing accuracy.

2. Wall Ball Challenge: Students throw their handball against a wall and catch the rebound—improves throwing, catching, and reaction time.

3. Partner Dribble Duel: Students face off, dribbling with their dominant hand while trying to tag their partner—develops dribbling, agility, and focus.

4. Handball Hot Potato: Students pass the GripPro ball quickly in a circle while music plays. When it stops, the last person to touch the ball does 5 jumping jacks—reinforces teamwork and reaction.

5. Partner Catch Ladder: Partners move farther apart after each successful catch—teaches tracking and progressive challenge.

6. Dribble Dodge: Students dribble while trying to avoid being tagged—teaches multi-tasking, agility, and spatial awareness.

7. One-Hand Wall Dribble: Students try to dribble the ball continuously against a wall using one hand—great for hand strength and focus.

8. Circle Pass Challenge: Groups stand in a circle and try to pass the ball around 10 times without dropping it—reinforces teamwork and precision.

9. Grip & Balance Walk: Students balance the handball on the back of their hand or palm while walking a narrow path—teaches focus and balance.

10. Dribble Freeze Tag: Taggers carry a GripPro ball. Everyone must dribble to stay safe. If tagged while not dribbling, you're frozen—engages control under pressure.

11. Zigzag Dribble Race: Students maneuver their ball through cones using controlled dribbling—teaches footwork and hand coordination.

12. Balance Beam Toss: Students stand on a Balance Beam while tossing the handball to a partner—great for dynamic balance and accuracy.

13. Scooter Handball Pass: Use Rainbow Scooter Boards for seated passing relays across the gym—adds mobility and upper-body coordination.

14. Jump Rope Pass & Catch: One partner jump ropes while the other tosses the ball; the rope jumper must catch it mid-jump—boosts timing and coordination.

15. Power Push Throw: Students push the ball from their chest (like a chest pass) as far as possible while standing on a marker—teaches force production and body alignment.
