USHA Hall of Fame and 2020 Masters Doubles Postponed

Dear Handball Family,

As I mentioned in my last message, the COVID-19 response is fluid and things are changing rapidly. As a result of care and concern for our members and families, as well as current restrictions on facilities, businesses, and gatherings, we are postponing the following events at this time:

Hall of Fame Tournament, Tucson, Arizona, April 3-5; and National Masters Doubles Championships scheduled for Schaumburg Tennis Plus in Schaumburg, Illinois, April 16-19.

Of course, we do this with heavy hearts and we sincerely apologize to those who may be inconvenienced. The USHA will give full refunds for entry fees. We are also pleased that most businesses associated with travel (e.g., airlines, hotels) are accommodating cancellations, as well. But, concern for our handball family and friends necessitates these postponements. We encourage you to contact your tournament directors regarding upcoming local, state, and regional events as they may be postponed or cancelled. We are already aware of some of these situations.

We are committed to doing what we can to reschedule the important USHA events identified above. And, of course, we look forward to a time when we can go back to “business as usual.” In the meantime, we hope you stay safe and take care.

Yours in Handball,

LeaAnn Martin
USHA President
