Are you interested in making a little extra coin on the side? If you have an interest in becoming a team handball referee, there will be a clinic happening sometime in the first couple weeks of January.

If you wish to inquire about the referee clinic, all questions can be sent to our head referee, Brian Hayes at bhayes@mymts.net

Thank you for all of those who have shown interest and we look forward to adding you to the list of WTHL officials!

Take care,

Week Two:

Men's division Player of the Week: Matt Rayner

Matt has been playing the league for approximately 13 years and has 6 championships under his belt. Matt currently plays and captains his team, the Rebels. Matt is the son of Manitoba Team Handball legend, Brad Rayner and is the current leading scorer for the men's division. Matt has greatly contributed to helping his team go 3-0 by scoring an amazing 23 goals in 3 games and keeping the Rebels as one of only a few teams that remain undefeated. Matt is heavily involved in Manitoba Team Handball's High School League and works hard to keep developing the young players that come into our league! We wish Matt all the best for the rest of the season and good luck to his team in remaining one of the league's top teams.

Women's division Player of the Week: Jillian James

Jill has been playing on her team, Fury, for the last 6 years and has helped keep her team a constant contender for Women's division champions. Fury is coming off a winning season as last season's Champions and will look to make this year equally successful. Jill plays center back for her team and also has been playing for Manitoba's provincial team for 5 of the last 6 years, only taking the last year off before hopefully deciding to continue to play again. Jill now leads the women's division after 3 games with 14 goals and looks to increase that number this upcoming weekend, watch out opponents! Fun fact about Jill from her teammates; (although unconfirmed) Jill has a healthy obsession with the Royal Family, keeping tabs on all its members and its newest addition, Prince George. We wish Jill and her team the best this season and this upcoming weekend!
