BU Handball

BU Handball Handball is back at Bournemouth University! Follow and contact us .handball on Instagram and stay up to date with all things Handball!

BU Handball is a high quality, fast paced mash-up of sport, sweat and FUN! Being one of the only established clubs in the Dorset area we strive to provide the highest standard of coaching and experience possible. We represent the Bournemouth University through our activities on the court, but also have ties with Poole Handball Club and Junior / Satellite clubs around the area. We welcome any and a

ll people, both from the university and beyond, our aim is to bring Handball within the UK into the 21st Century! This club was set up and is ran by a group of Sports Students from Bournemouth University, our time and passion provide others the opportunity to take art in a sport which wouldn't be available otherwise here in Bournemouth. With the Help of John Pearce, former Team GB Athlete we are forever growing in ability and as a club to become the best we can be. Long Term plan is for the students that began this voluntary Handball journey in September 2013 to become qualified professional Handball Coaches, to branch out and grow handball within Dorset and the south coast. "My attitude is that if you push me towards something that you think is a weakness, then I will turn that perceived weakness into a strength"

Our first ever BUCS handball national finals 🏆 🤾‍♂️

What a weekend! Went into the weekend with high hopes after our win streak in the regional rounds, two key players getting bad injuries on the first day and some man marking led to narrow losses in our first two games.

However, the team stepped up to the challenge on the second day and we beat Stirling (overall competition winners in the end). Some great team play and solid defence from the boys. Lastly, playing our placement match and just losing again by just 1 goal to a team we previously beat with a full team. A tough pill to swallow.

A lot to learn from this experience especially since it’s our first year as a team and for the majority, their first year playing handball. Couldn’t be prouder of the boys and what we achieved this season ✅

Look forward to being back next year!!
