The WPH Celebrates a Banner 2014!
The WPH staff, board of directors, and several pro players celebrated a banner 2014 for the World Players of Handball at the annual WPH Holiday Party. In 2014, the WPH signed an exclusive broadcasting deal with ESPN to cover all Race 4 Eight events and the WPH/WOR 3Wallball World Championships, organized and managed the Race 4 Eight tour and the WPH Outdoor Cup Series, and hosted over 600 junior handball clinics in the United States, England, Mexico, and Canada.

“Each year seems to top the previous year,’ boasted WPH Development Director David Fink. “The WPH continues to innovate in all facets of handball, from the indoor and outdoor pro handball tours, junior clinics and tournaments throughout North America and Europe, and covering all things handball from across the globe on a daily basis.”
2015 promises to be another spectacular year, as the Race 4 Eight IV will continue to excite on ESPN, the WPH Outdoor Cup Series will start its fourth season towards the end of the spring, and Junior WPH will continue to inspire the next generation of handball players across the world.
