How Handball scoring works
Each ball that fully enters the goal counts as 1 point (1 goal). A goal is valid once the ball has completely crossed the goal line between the posts in a legal action. There are no multi-point shots: every goal counts as 1, regardless of distance.
Match format
Standard playing time (age 16 and over) is two halves of 30 minutes, separated by a roughly 10-minute break. For younger categories the duration is shorter (often 2 x 25 or 2 x 20 minutes depending on the federation). If a winner is required after a draw, overtime and then a 7-metre throw shootout may be used.
How to win
The team that has scored the most goals at the end of regulation time wins the match. A match may end in a draw, unless the competition rules require a winner (overtime, then 7-metre throws).
Recommended Score Zen setup
Set up handball with simple incremental scoring (+1 per goal) across two timed periods. The Official preset gives 2 x 30 minutes; the Casual preset shortens the period length, and you can also set the number and length of periods manually (e.g. 2 x 25 / 2 x 20 for youth). No target score: you end the match yourself when time runs out.
