The Australian Handball Federation [AHF] is pleased to
announce that arrangements had been finalised for the
‘Rethink drink’ Australian National Senior Handball
Championships. The event will be held during 16 – 18
October 2009 in
Venueswest Arena Joondalup,
Joondalup,
Western Australia.
Entry to all the games is free of charge thanks to the
generous support from sponsors, including the host City
of Joondalup.
In addition to this event further promoting handball and
deciding the senior’s championship titles, it is also
providing another avenue for the ‘Rethink drink’
campaign which is part of the Western Australian
government’s Healthway programs. The naming right
arrangement with Healthway not only provides needed
sponsorship for the event, but it also recognises
handball as a healthy activity. The Western Australian
State Government, through the Department of Sport &
Recreation and Lotterywest, is a major supporter of the
‘rethink drink’ Australian National Senior Handball
Championships. AHF wishes to thank Healthway and the WA
Government for the partnership in this significant
handball event.
The championships will also give the players an
opportunity to showcase their handball skills. This
event forms part of the selection process for the men’s
and women’s national teams which will participate in
upcoming international and world handball events. AHF
also congratulates and thanks all the associations for
their participation and assistance which ensure the
success of the event. In particular AHF thanks Handball
West,
Daniel Svensson (President Handball West) as the
Competition Manager and Rikke Petersen (WA Director, AHF
Board) as the Assistant Competition Manager.
AHF is also pleased that the championships will be
contested by senior men’s and women’s teams of handball
associations from:
Australian Capital Territory
New South Wales
Queensland
South Australia
Victoria
Western Australia
