I want to start new sport, this time not fighting sport. Ive been wrestling for 4 years and 1 years of boxing.

So now i want to play in team. I cant decide which one should i start, volleyball or handball? Im pretty talented in both after playing a bit with friends and i was really good for newbie.

I would like to hear you opinions about both sports and maybe someone of you will give me motivation to start one of them. Suggestions like "try both of them first" are not good since i have already tried

So basically im expecting to someone convince me to one of this sport.

This depends mostly on which one of them you like the most, or like to do while doing one of those sports. Do you like throwing the ball into the goal? If so, then go ahead with the handball otherwise if you're good enough at hitting the ball and having a very good aim and precision then go with the volleyball. Of course, this also applies in handball too if you want to throw the ball precisely and marking a goal score. I'd say both of them are good but I am not here to judge.

Volleyball. Why? You'll make tons of friends at the beach. Volleyball has a bit more mechanics to it too I believe. I don't play Handball so I don't want to judge but volleyball seems more exciting to me. Girls like it a lot too so you'll be more popular

Rainoth: Hahaha, youre not wrong.

ZxC, which one do you prefer after all?

Pros and cons so far i found by both sport:
Handball + You move a lot, - Sometimes gets easy (especially if you have strength)
Volleyball:
+ More advanced, teamplay is required, - You dont move around much

Both of them are nice. I, for my part, have been playing volleyball for ~8 years now, and I love it. It's always the highlight of the week.

also, if you play volleyball correctly, you move around A LOT. it's not a "everybody has their spot" type of sport. You do tons of short sprints. it's more of a sprinting sport than a long-time running sport, that's right - but you move a ton.
