Hans Baumann (1906 – 7 February 1971) was a Swiss architect and sports administrator who was one of the founding members of the International Handball Federation (IHF).

He had previously served as the vice-president of the IHF from 1946 to 1950 along with Charles Petit-Montgobert (France) under the presidency of Gösta Björk (Sweden).

Baumann's main aim was to see handball return to the Olympic programme, which he achieved but was not able to witness himself—he died due to heart attack in Basel on 7 February 1971, a year and a half before the Olympic Handball Tournament in the Munich games.

After his death and in recognition of his great contribution to the development of handball worldwide, the IHF Council and Royal Spanish Handball Federation together created an award named the Hans Baumann Trophy, which would be awarded biannually during IHF Congress to the member federations for their outstanding contribution to the development of handball in their country and throughout the world.
