End Of The Year
Year of 2010 draws to a close.
Team KL Hoisan has been the team to beat in 2010. The best local team this year.Winning virtually all major handball tournaments held in Malaysia. The latest being the recently concluded Putrajaya Handball League. Read more here.
The Malaysian Amateur Handball Association also had their Annual General Meeting. The new president is from Johor and the secretary is from the state of Selangor. It will be interesting to see what the new year will hold for the local handball scene.
It is nice to note that the interest in handball has increased immensely in the last year or so. There are many teams now that actively participate in the tournaments organized nationwide. The level of handball amongst the participants is slowly rising. It would be good to note however, that the standard of refereeing has to be improved on. Referees play an important role in the efforts to raise the standard of the sport in Malaysia. It is difficult to improve the standard of handball in Malaysia if the refereeing is poor, when the referees are unsure of the application of the rules of the game, and are unable to have good control of the game.
Next up is the 3rd Bukit Jalil Beach Handball Tournament which will be held on November 14 2010. Check this site for more information. Also the Putrajaya Handball Open is scheduled to be held on 28th November 2010.
