Modern handball court dimensions in meters should measure 40 meters long and 20 meters wide. The handball ground measurement converts to 44 x 22 yards or 131 x 66 feet.

The internal goal measurement is 2 meters (6.56 feet) from the floor to the underside of the top bar. It is 3 meters wide (9.84 feet) between each side post.

The goal line at each end is the 6 meter line. It divides an area between the goalkeeper and the rest of the outfield players.

A 7 meter line marks the spot for penalty shots. Penalties follow fouls committed on players who have a clear shooting chance on goal.

In standard measurement of handball field dimensions there is a 9 meter line. The 'free-throw line' is a curved dotted line extending from the goal marking. You can also get familiar with more handball terms and phrases. Play resumes from this line when fouls occur inside the goal zone.
