Even though it is considered a club sport on campus, the team handball players had an impressive season during fall semester. Consisting of 14 players, the team finished third in regular league play and sixth in conference play. There are nine teams in the southeast conference division. Every four years, there are world championship games.
Many children begin to play the sport at young ages.
But in America, the game is overlooked, probably because not a lot of people know exactly what the game is. It is played on a basketball court and has seven players on each side, including a goalie for both teams. Players dribble a ball and attempt to score by throwing the ball into a net, which is protected by the goalie. Team handball is managed through the office of Campus Recreation and Intramurals. Washington, a junior, pulls double-duty for the team, both as player and coach.
