Talk:handball

Can handball be used to indicate the playing object (the ball) in handball (the sport)? Just like basketball can. Note that the sport is uncountable, the object is countable, though this is not mentioned at basketball (unlike football).

Possible missing sense
Chambers 1908 defines hand-ball as "the sport of throwing and catching a ball". Equinox ◑ 23:59, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
