What do you like about our programs and activities?

All is fine, but you need to promote HANDBALL. We don't have enough players and the children are NOT taking it up. Please promote HANDBALL vs. Pickleball, the latter requiring much less skill and energy than handball. WE NEED PLAYERS!

Our Sarasota Handball League plays Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4-7 PM, and Saturday 10 AM -Noon. All handball players are welcome.

Thank you.
