ABSTRACT: The present survey is aimed at outlining a picture of the behavioral situation of aggression in the Handball in Congo according to the type of aggression (instrumental, hostile) and that of the gender. In sum, 48 handballers of the senior teams among whom 28 men were observed during the semi-finals and finals 2012-2013 sports season. The videos sequences of various matches have been analyzed by confederal referees on the basis of Coulomb, Rascle and Pfister methodology. The outcome obtained, enable to observe that men present a highest level of any type of aggression compared to women. Furthermore, the opposition attitudes (percussions, blows, repulsions) are the most experienced. Thus, we are going to support the hypothesis that the congolese handball is the hub of the occurrence of some forms of aggressiveness, legalized in sport like nowhere else.
