Abstract:This study may lead to the identification of the elements that indicate trends of men's handball for the period 2004-2016, thus creating the conditions for determining the principles for achieving training and participation in high level competitions. As a result of comparing the data obtained from the performed analysis, there should be reconsidered margins actions efficiency benchmarks monitored in order to be useful in training and competition, by requiring reconsideration model performance of handball game at senior level. Given that the survey covers the four editions of the Olympic Games and the analyzed data showed high degree of veridicity, we notice which parts may be used for the following competitions. Key words: handball, efficiency, performance, Olympic Games. IntroductionMen's handball was present for the first time, as a demonstrative sport, in the Olympic program at the 1936 edition in Berlin, when six teams were participating. Next appearance is held at O.G. Munich 1972, time then remaining constant in the Olympic Games program. It was the edition with most teams participating, 16 in number; at the next edition decreases the number of teams to 11, and from 1980 to the present, the number of participating teams is 12. Designation of participating teams is as follows: the host team, World Cup finalists, winners of continental championships to which there are added the first 2 ranked each of the 3 qualifier tournaments.In the form with 12 participating teams, the number of games played by each team varies between 5 and 8, depending on the place in the rankings: places 1-8 -6-8 games, places 9-12 -5 games.The measurement and assessment of the game actions play an important role in planning the training process and competition (Bilge, 2012).The handball players must have a lot of motor skills enabling them to execute a wide range of techniques, with and without the ball, in terms of speed and strength in relationships with teammates and in opposition with the other team. Practicing handball at performance level requires a specific and sustained effort to meet the rigors of competition (Ghervan, 2006).In the performance handball at the senior level the teams carry over 60 offensive and as many defensive actions. The net duration of the game is around 42 minutes, so at every game there are lost 18 minutes. Offensive and defensive actions made during the game differ in terms of content, duration and purpose. The average duration of an attack is about 25 seconds. In performance handball 50% of actions are completed in a goal, in 30% of cases there are missed shots, and in 20% of the actions the ball is lost before the shot (Taborsky, 2001).The effort in the game of handball is characterized by the alternation of a large number of short and explosive actions (over 300) interrupted by periods of active break (lasting up to 30 seconds). The fast actions have as average a duration of 2-3 seconds and represent approximately 20% of the time. This type of effort is the main determinant of performance, ...
