News for Winnipeg Team Handball League

Welcome to a new season!!!

Posted Fri Oct 31, 2014 - 02:54 PM

We're excited to once again get started with another season of exciting Team Handball!! We'd like to welcome our newest team in the Men's division, the Tube Sharks. With the guidance and leadership of Colin Bouchard, look out for this team of young and quick athletes.

All teams will be playing this Sunday, November 2nd in the North Gym of Red River College. Fans are more than welcome to come join our teams and cheer on your family members and/or friends! There will be seating for spectators, so no more sitting on the ground to watch.

A quick reminder to all teams to have their rosters for the weekend finalized before Saturday, November 1st. After Novmeber 1st, you will need league assistance and approval to add players to your team! All players will be required to sign a waiver form as part of their registration for the 2014-15 season. Waivers signed last season are no longer valid and a new one will need to be provided to league administrators. Waivers can be found in our menu bar under "Forms & Files". Please print extra to avoid not having a waiver form for the game.

Remember to check your schedule for your team on Sunday and make sure to look to see if you play more than once!! Teams have timekeeping duties and those times are listed in the "Score Keeper Schedule" menu on the left of our homepage. ****PLEASE NOTE: There is a timechange that occurs overnight from Saturday to Sunday. All clocks will change back 1 HOUR!! Make sure you and your team are aware of this, or you may be showing up extra early to cheer on the team playing before you, which wouldn't be a bad thing.

Lets have a great season and we're looking forward to seeing everyone out on Sunday.

Good luck to all teams. Sincerely,

WTHL and crew
