What a great handball weekend in the Bay! Our youth league wrapped up with a final tournament: 100+ middle & high schoolers, including the first-ever 4 Girls' teams!

This is what grassroots is all about. Led by Martin Bilello, this program is already feeding our Adult teams and even Youth National rosters. We are proud to build the future of handball right here in the Bay Area! ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿคพ
