DENVER, COLORADO PRO HANDBALL CLINIC

Denver, Colorado, through the help of WPH buddy Jed Seigel, hosted one hell of a pro handball clinic! Emmett and Dave were physically drained, yet found the time to get EVERY handball player on the court. An estimated 90 people showed up to watch and participate!!!

If you want your organization to take part in the tour, please contact us at: weplayhandball@cs.com

The "original team" of Mark Hammond and Bear Meiring jumped out to a very quick 12-0 lead on the shirttails of a very enthusiastic local crowd. Then, Emmett realized that he had a name on the back of his shirt and sparked teammate Dave Fink to a 21-2 run to close out the one game exhibition. The locals are VERY MUCH into ball and we want to return just to be apart of this vibe!


The Colorado Gallery was packed full of fans on this day (Left); meanwhile, (center) event organizer Stan Dunleavy stops for a quick pose with Emmett, Dave, Mark, and Bear.
