Who decides whether playing handball with resin is allowed or not?

The IHF initially only stipulates that both types of handballs are permitted in official games, provided they meet the specified size and weight standards. The final decision on the use of resin therefore does not lie with the IHF, but rather with the venue operators. Even if the IHF allows the use of resin, a sports hall can prohibit it due to cleaning and maintenance requirements. Conditions and regulations thus vary from place to place. Some regional associations are already completely banning the use of resin to standardise conditions across leagues.

What is the difference between balls played with resin and balls played without resin?

The IHF has revised the ball regulations to specify the sizes of balls with and without resin. Balls without resin are significantly smaller and slightly lighter in all sizes. This makes the ball easier to throw and catch, even without the use of resin. Additionally, the surface of resin-free balls offers special properties to simplify gripping. For example, the surface may be water-absorbent or feature stronger, grippier contour grooves. Some balls can also be played with lower air pressure, allowing the fingertips to sink in more deeply without negatively affecting the bounce behaviour. However, the special surface structure also means that using resin would significantly damage the ball.
