The World Players of Handball was thrilled to present a Junior WPH handball clinic at the famed Stratosphere 3-WallBall court complex to kickoff the fifth installment of the WPH/WOR 3 Wallball World Championships.

“The WPH/WOR 3WallBall Championships is the premiere outdoor event of the year and having the opportunity to work alongside racquetball to introduce youngsters to handball was a tremendous opportunity for us to introduce the great game of handball to new players,” revealed WPH Development Director and Master Instructor David Fink.”

WPH Coaches David Fink, Aoife McCarthy, Sal Duenas and Shorty Ruiz introduced 15 Boy Scouts from neighboring Las Vegas suburbs to handball on the WPH/WOR 3 Wallball World Championship courts. The coaches demonstrated the handball stroke, followed by serving and kill shot games and ended the session with singles and doubles king of the court.

“The clinic was absolutely awesome,” revealed WPH/WOR 3 Wallball Championships racquetball director Hank Marcus. “The handball coaches were amazing with the kids and the kids had a blast playing.”
