Facility Specification Pack
Handball combines a large indoor court, fast play, powerful goal impacts and substantial spectator/event infrastructure. Goal restraint, wall protection and shared-hall changeover need to be designed rather than improvised.

PROJECT PATHProject Brief
01
PROJECT INTENT
Define the facility level before selecting systems.
Club / academy
Club hall with repeat goal handling, team zones, scoreboard and spectators.
Competition
Competition hall with exact court/equipment, lighting, officials and event infrastructure.
Elite / major venue
Arena with major seating, FÍSVOR, broadcast lighting, media and professional operations.
02
TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
Twelve coordination clauses for the complete facility.
geometry
Protect court, goal areas, safety/run-off, team/substitution zones and officials positions before spectator or shared-use overlays.
surface
Use a resilient, flat, consistent indoor floor with line marking and protection matched to handball and secondary sports.
equipment
Goals, nets, restraint/anchoring, padding/protection and handling trolleys must be exact, safe systems.
lighting
Coordinate high-speed ball visibility, uniformity, glare and broadcast camera requirements.
spectators
Separate spectator and team circulation, accessible viewing and arena seating from player safety zones.
structure
Goal anchors/restraint, wall protection, dividers, displays, lighting and roof services all interact.
environment
Ventilation and thermal comfort should avoid strong draughts and condensation on the playing surface.
accessibility
Accessible spectators and venue circulation should be planned outside the safety envelope and team zones.
storage
Goals, nets, benches, protection and divider equipment need large, nearby storage and safe handling routes.
technology
Game clock, scoreboards, electronic timeout systems, FÍSVOR and PA should be coordinated with officials/control positions.
evidence
Use current IHF Rules of the Game and court/goal guidelines; exact equipment and local structural evidence remain separate.
lifecycle
Inspect goals/restraint, nets, floor, wall protection, scoring, dividers and seating after repeated use/changeovers.

EVIDENCE & RELEASE
Keep each evidence type attached to what it actually proves.
Governing rule
Defines sport or competition requirements. It does not approve a supplier or local construction detail.
Exact product evidence
Testing, approval, certification or manufacturer evidence must match the selected product/configuration.
Installed outcome
Where applicable, field/court/facility certification relates to the completed installation rather than the product alone.
Project engineering
Foundations, structural supports, wind/seismic, electrical and building interfaces remain project-specific.
Commercial release
Quantity, documentation, warranty, freight, installation boundaries, spares and handover are closed before order.

TECHNICAL RISK CHECK
Common symptoms that should trigger investigation.
Goal movement
Check anchor/restraint and frame.
Wall impact risk
Review safety distance and protection.
Floor contamination/slip
Check cleaning and footwear/adhesive contamination.
Score/time-out failure
Check power, controls and protocol.
Storage damage
Review trolleys, doors and stacking.
Glare
Review fixtures and reflective surfaces.

PRIMARY GOVERNING REFERENCES
Verify final requirements at the official source.
IHF Regulations & Documents
Current Indoor Handball Rules of the Game, court/goal guidelines and related regulations.
SUPPLY BOUNDARY
Apollo is supply-only.
Local design, foundations, civil works, installation, electrical work, statutory approvals, accessibility compliance and professional sign-off remain with the appropriate project parties unless a specific support item is expressly included. Current governing-body rules, exact selected-system data and local requirements take precedence over this planning pack.
