| Post Xmas Youth Handball ClinicThanks to Sean Von Roenn and the Bob Burger Rec Center in Lafayette, we were able to conduct a two day youth handball clinic on December 26 & 27th. 15 young players received instruction from Mark Hammond, Jake Plummer, Sean Von Roenn, Mike Kearney & Stan Wolpoff.
Most participants play baseball for Mark, although Jake invited 3 players visiting from Kansas. Everyone had a blast!
We plan to offer similar programs, during future school vacations. All attendees said they will play handball again. A few adult spectators asked when they might get a chance to learn to play.

| Congratulations to Jeffco B Team !!Jeffco B wins the league. Congratulations to Cody Parker and the Jeffco team for winning Position Day. I believe this is the first time a Jeffco team has won Stanley’s Cup.
Jeffco B and Fort Collins Day both had five wins on Position Day but Jeffco had the overall best league record with 46 wins (first tiebreaker) to take the cup. Jeffco B requested that the cup label be made up in honor of Dennis Parker who captained this team for many years.
Littleton went 4 and 4 and DAC went 2 and 6. As usual it came down to the Contenders 2 doubles match before the outcome was decided. Thanks to all who participated in the Fall League, especially you Captains. A big thank you to APEX for letting us use all the courts for Position Day. CHA sponsored a post-match gathering at Malone’s. Most of the players and spectators attended which was great to see.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,
Mike

Several members take advantage of this - you can see their ads along the right side by scrolling down the page.

We know that many of you wait until the last possible minute to enter a tourney - even when you know you want to enter. You just don't want to enter early and then have to cancel because of a conflict that comes up at work, with your family, or an injury. But don't miss the entry deadline just because it fell off your radar. We will send you an email 8 days before the tourney event to remind you. Sign up on the event calendar for the event you want to be reminded of. - (published here on Sunday, January 16, 2011) |
