GTTH Is Getting Back In The Game!

 

 

 

Monday, November 27, 2006

 

Hello Georgia Tech Students!

 

Georgia Tech Team Handball is getting ready to kick it off again!  We are looking to be better and stronger!  This club is built specifically for the GT student body and people who are looking to:

 

ü        Throw parties!

ü        Compete and play a physical sport

ü        Fulfill an Olympic dream

ü        Learn more about sports management

ü        Travel around the country without paying a dime!

ü        Make new friends

ü        Find other international students at Tech

ü        Meet United States Olympic Committee Officials

 

Our club had to shut down as a result of diminished playing opportunities nationwide.  This was a direct consequence of some in-fighting between the sport’s National Governing Body (NGB), USA Team Handball, and the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) in 2005 and 2006.  As such, USA Team Handball was officially decertified in February 2006 and the sport has started to slowly recover.

 

However, with our partnership with the American Handball Association, we will only have to worry about having fun!  So come on out and enjoy the parties, the new friends and the traveling with Georgia Tech Team Handball!!!

 

GO JACKETS!!!!!
