Resin is an essential part of a handball player's equipment, as it provides an optimal grip on the ball. Before a match or training session, many players rub a lump of solid resin into their palms and fingertips. It's important not to use too much, as this can make the ball too sticky and difficult to release. Liquid resin is typically applied by pouring a small amount onto the palm and rubbing it into the skin. Once the resin is applied, it's important to warm it up by rubbing your hands together. This makes the resin more effective and ensures a better grip. A good grip on the ball is essential for performing the various techniques in handball, such as catching, throwing, and dribbling. Resin gives the player greater security in their movements and reduces the risk of losing the ball.
