Olympic Sport Seeks Lefties
USA Team Handball wrote 10 December 2009
Hi,
Team Handball is one of about 30 Summer Olympic sports, and the one sport that puts the highest premium on having left-handed throwing players. Team Handball is played 7-v-7 on a basketball-size court, with teams throwing a volleyball-sized ball into a 6′ x 10′ goal. It’s like water polo on land…
Anyways, you can find the USA federation at www.usateamhandball.org. We are actively recruiting exceptional athletes, primarily between the ages of 14-22, men and women, interested in learning the sport and/or competing on a local, regional, national or international level. If you’d like to learn more, please send an email to info@usateamhandball.org with the following:
Name, City/State, Height, Weight, Sports Experience, Handball Experience and, of course, which hand you throw with.
Generally, we’re looking for women taller than 5′8″ and men taller than 6′ – but we’re interested in all exceptional athletes. Top cities where you can start playing today include LA, NY, Chicago, Salt Lake City, Colorado Springs, Atlanta, Boston, Washington DC, Denver, Houston and many more.
Please forward to your left-handed friends!
GO USA!
