No Handball match victory can rival the feeling I had walking my daugther down the aisle.

FREE GIFT TO NEPAL HANDBALL ASSOCIATION

It is with great joy that Reading Handball Club is donating as a gift handball goals, equipment, balls and sportswear to the Nepal Handball Association.
I have been introduced to Tej Bahadur Gurung, current president of the NHA, a few years ago, by a mutual friend and we carried on talking after the terrible Gorkha earthquake of 2015. Devastation, many lives lost, so many injured people, and hundreds of thousands of Nepalese were made homeless with entire villages flattened. Now, years have passed, but I still had the hope I could help one day.
I know how much sporting activities and certainly Handball can help to rebuild lives and help community to bond around a team sport, and now that Reading Handball Club has stopped its activities, it seemed this donation was the right thing to do.
I hope this equipment will help young people in Nepal to develop sporting skills, improving their mental health as well as creating lifelong friendships.
Good luck to all and long live Handball and England Handball Association

Dear friends,

It has been some time since I have asked for help but here I find myself, once again, having to ask for your generosity so that I am able to help a close family member. Unfortunately, as you know, the war is still ongoing. It is the reality of the Ukrainian people and we cannot give up! My cousin and his team are on the frontline defending the future of Ukraine. It's crucial for them to have working 4wheels to grant supplies, ammunition and evacuation of the wounded. Luck has not been on their side and their SUV broke down leaving them in a very complicated situation. I am fundraising for them to be able to fix it and place a set of winter wheels which are necessary in this very harsh winter months.

Please, help me helping them!

I am also very aware of the difficult financial situation the world is in, so I would also be very grateful and it would already be of great help if you could share:

It is with sadness that we are announcing that Reading Handball Club is now closed. But the last 8 years have given the players great joy and rewards, friendships have been created, relationships started, championships and tournaments won, good laughs and great memories built, so no regret for that!
Handball is a great sport, and we hope participation will carry on growing in the next few years as it is now a GCSE gradable sport. So, if you are at school or enquire for your son or daughter, please enquire with your school head of PE. If you are looking for a club, contact the EHA on https://englandhandball.com/find-a-club/. Enjoy Handball.

To ALL HANDBALL LOVERS around Berkshire&Reading area!

We would like to re-open the Club in September 2021 and I am gathering your interest.
The Club started in 2014 and has experienced many successes and won many trophies competing with Ladies, Men and Junior teams at the highest level of England Handball in both Regional and National leagues.
But to continue to achieve this, we need:
- Enough members to fund the club’s activities (around 40 to 50 members to break even).
- To re-create teams to play matches.
- Coaches and volunteers to organise club administrative tasks and activities.

If you are interested please e-mail [email protected] before the deadline of 1st September 2021.
