Many throws in handball are done similar to the ratchet-style hits of volleyball - where deceleration does not cross the midline and heavily biases the glenohumeral joint - this predisposes to local stress instead of shared stress. Reduced total glenohumeral rotation has been identified as a risk factor among elite male handball players. (Clarsen et al, 2014). Clarsen, B., Bahr, R., Andersson, S. H., Munk, R., & Myklebust, G. (2014). Reduced glenohumeral rotation, external rotation weakness and scapular dyskinesis are risk factors for shoulder injuries among elite male handball players: a prospective cohort study.
