For the last few years the IOHA has offered little or no services to primary schools outside of Dublin. No All-Ireland competition was staged in 2010 and not intended this year by the IOHA. At this stage almost all handball playing primary schools in Galway, Sligo and Kildare have decided not to register with the IOHA. Meanwhile, the association has refused to accept affiliations from Meath, for reasons...
After sniffing around the IOHA pages (yes, once every a few months I do that to check what they are up to) I realized that the future of handball in Ireland doesn’t seems to be in Ireland at all. A few weeks ago I published a post to thanks those people in Ireland that day after day are working to keep handball alive. In one of my latest post someone pointed out how the main figures in the IOHA board...
Dublin International successfully defended its Irish Champion title by taking home victory vs. a very competitive UCD team. The college team played probably the best match of the season keeping the score close and the tension up for most of the game. A few mistakes permitted DI to open up a larger gap and secure the result, at which stage UCD gave space to all its players. The final score 33-23 gives...

Last poll was asking about last year of handball. Answers indicated as 2010 was generally quite poor, showing how there is something wrong on how handball is managed in this country. It is true that handball in Ireland is a very small sport, with few and expensive venues available and no real interest outside the handball community. But because the community is so small, it should be easier to get...
On the IOHA website appears a article that describe the IOHA Festival of handball a great success, in total harmony with the IOHA president view that “ the IOHA board is more important than handball ”. Surely from an organizational point of view the 3 days event went smoothly, giving the president plenty of chance to shake more important hands.. But from a handball point of view (played handball, the...
m happy to add authors. Anyway, I recently found the two reports which are attached to this post and since it will soon be the 30th anniversary of the game in question then it seemed a good time to post. The game appears to be significant since both reports suggest that it is a first win but the evidence isn't entirely clear; one saying a first for the GB U21 men's team and the other saying the first...
