Best Handball Moment:

I WAS PLAYING MY TEACHER, IT WAS POINT GAME FOR ME, I SERVED THE BALL,ON HIS RETURNED SHOT I HIT THE BALL UPWARD WITH MY HAND COMMING OVER THE TOP OF THE BALL. IT LOOKED LIKE THE BALL WAS GOING TO HIT HIGH ON THE WALL,SO MY OPPONENT STARTED TO MOVE TO THE MIDDLE COURT,TO HIS SUPPRISE THE BALL JUST SANK AN MADE A ROLLING KILLER- YES!!!

Tournament Experience:

I PLAYED ONLY IN A FEW TOURNAMENTS, I FOUND TOURNAMENT PLAYING GOES ON A LITTLE TO LONG, CAUSING TO MUCH DOWN TIME IN BETWEEN MATCHES. NOT TO MENTION THE UNNESSARY DRAMA SOME OF THESE UNSKILLED PLAYERS BRING TO THE COURTS.
