Successful 2009 Pacific Cup
and Junior National Championship Events |
|
Jun 04, 2009 |
|
The Australian Handball Federation [AHF] congratulates
all the teams which participated in the 2009 Pacific Cup
and the Junior National Championships held during 28th –
31st May 2009 at the Sleeman Sports Centre, Chandler
[Brisbane, Queensland].
This year’s Pacific Cup had a ‘Tasman Cup’ touch with
the tournament being contested by teams from Australia
and New Zealand only. The four teams which competed
were: Australian Senior Women’s Team, New Zealand
Handball Federation, Handball New
Zealand
and Queensland. The Queensland team was formed to fill
the gap resulting from the withdrawal of New Caledonia.
The Australian Women’s team decidedly won the Pacific
Cup which also doubled up as the qualifier for the
Women’s World Championship to be held in China in
December 2009. The AHF congratulates the Women’s Team
and the Team Management - Katsu Kinoshita [Head Coach],
John Calvert [Acting Manager] and Nicky Rolls
[Physiotherapist] and wishes them the best as they
prepare for the World Championship. Congratulations are
also extended to Tori Brunsberg for her award as 2009
Pacific Cup’s Highest Goal Scorer.

The Junior National Championships likewise had a ‘State
of Origin’ flavour with participating teams only from
New South Wales and Queensland. It was pleasing to
note, however, that Queensland had two u18 men’s teams
in the competition.
All the 2009 Junior Titles [u18 men’s, u18 women’s,
u21men’s and u21 women’s] were won by the New South
Wales teams. With the exception of the u17 men’s title,
NSW teams also won the 2008 Junior Championships. In
2007, NSW won both u21 men’s and women’s titles, with
Victoria winning the u18 men’s and u18 women’s. The AHF
congratulates all the players who participated and also
the respective team management.

Successful and Historic Senior Championships |
|
Oct 29, 2008 |
|

The Australian Handball Federation [AHF]
congratulates the Queensland Team Handball
Association which hosted the Seniors National
Championships and all the participating handball
state associations for a successful and historic
event held during 24-26 October 2008.
The ‘Arena’ in the Sleeman Sporting Complex in
Chandler, Brisbane which is a legacy from the 1982
Commonwealth Games, provided a good venue for the
championships. ‘Arena’ is defined as the area in
the central part of an amphitheatre, in which the
gladiators fought. The enthusiastic play by all the
participants was in keeping with this exciting
scenario. Each game received much cheering from the
spectators and supporters. Each goal was valiantly
won.
The AHF congratulates New South Wales for winning
both the men’s and women’s championships for the
third year in a row.
The AHF is pleased to announce the following
results:

The 2008 Seniors National Championships will go down as
a historic event in Australian handball for several
reasons. In this national tournament, AHF welcomed the
participation of the newly recognised Victorian handball
association, “Handball Victoria”. The HV teams provided
strong competition narrowly missed winning the women’s
title. In an intense women’s final game between Victoria
and New South Wales the title was decided by one goal
after extra time.

Secondly, it was at this event that the AHF and the
whole Australian handball family paid tribute to Sasha
Dimitric. Sasha was duly acknowledged as the founder of
Australian handball by introducing the sport in 1980 and
continually nurturing it to the present time. AHF
President, Alex Gavrilovic announced at the presentation
that from this year a trophy named the “The Sasha
Dimitric Cup” will be awarded to the National Men’s
Champions. The crowd cheered and applauded as Sasha
accepted the trophy and presented “The Sasha Dimitric
Cup” to the New South Wales men’s team.

Sasha thanked the AHF for the recognition and expressed
his appreciation to all the officials and the volunteers
for their contribution over the years that enabled
handball to be where it is now. He gave special
recognition to the players for embracing the sport and
maintaining their passion for the sport despite some
challenges.

Stephen Harbort, Event Director of the 2008 National
Seniors Championships also congratulated all the players
and thanked all the state associations for their
participation and contribution to the success of the
event.
Everyone agreed that putting the medals and trophies
aside, the real winner of the event is handball. |

QTHA Hosts Seniors National Championships 2008 |
|
Oct 21, 2008 |
|

The Australian Handball Federation [AHF]
is pleased to announce that the next significant
handball event, the Seniors National Championships will
be held in the Sleeman Sporting Complex in Chandler,
Brisbane during 24th – 26th
October 2008.
The AHF is particularly pleased that the newly
recognised Victorian handball association, “Handball
Victoria” will be participating in the championships.
The championships will be contested by teams from the
Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales,
Queensland, South Australia, Victoria and Western
Australia. These state handball associations will be
fielding men’s and women’s teams, with the exception of
Western Australia which will not present a women’s team
in 2008.
Aside from deciding the Australian
titles, the championships will also provide another
opportunity for the players to showcase their skills in
front of National Selectors and Coaches.
The AHF wishes to thank the
Queensland Team Handball Association for making the
necessary arrangements for the event and the other
state associations for participating and extending
their help to ensure a successful tournament. The
AHF also wishes all the participants an enjoyable
and challenging tournament.
