The use of handball glue offers major advantages to the development of the handball game. Spectacular shots and passes are possible, and the line-players seem to demonstrate magnetic hands, when they succeed in catching 'impossible' passes.
All this requires months and years of training, as well as careful use of handball glue.
Handball glue is a sticky substance, and picks up dust and dirt from the floor, but the glue is also left on the surfaces hit by the ball or touched by the players' hands. This requires cleaning and is the controversial part of the use of handball glue.
In several sports halls, in several countries, the use of glue is banned, due to the difficulties in cleaning the floor etc. That is too bad. Players, using these sports halls, are thus unable to develop their game and improve their technique and performance, which in turn limits their competitiveness when meeting other clubs, where the use of handball glue is well adopted.
To ensure continued acceptance of the use of handball glue, it is important to show consideration to the possibilities of removing the handball glue. But it is also important to use handball glue, which is easy to remove from floor and hands, as well as choosing a handball glue without risks of allergy.
To this use we suggest the following Code of Good Conduct, which we have split in to 3 parts, one for each of the major parties with an interest in sensible use of handball glue.We would welcome your input to these Codes of Good Conduct, so we can update the recommendations below with your practical experiences.
