Update - 8th August

The first Brunei Handball Tournament on the 29th July was a successful event with Shooter and Nokotta running away with the championship trophies.

Final standings of the men's and women's division:

Men:
1. Shooter
2. Swingerz
3. Mix KB

Women:
1. Nokotta
2. Shooting Stars
3. Dragon Ballz

Few days before the final, Institut Teknologi Brunei conducted a mini handball tournament for their new intakes. Few of the Pro-Team members were involved and present during the tournament. The turn-out was very welcoming and there was quite a significant number of students interested to take on this game as their ECA activities.

On another high note, the Pro-Team also participated in the Hari Belia roadshow that went on for three days, 3rd til 5th at the Indoor Stadium, SHHB Sports Complex. There were more than 200 visitors to the association's booth. It was nice to know that there are interested party from all ages for this game. There were mini shooting game for kids and *cough* adults *cough* as well as skill games and slide display of the tournament pictures. Videos of international and local games were also shown to the public to catch their attention of this beloved game of ours.

As a result of this publicity during the roadshow, there were a number of new faces that came for training last tuesday. We are expecting more, hopefully, with more interested individuals or clubs particularly students to give handball a try. So everyone is welcome to come for training. Remember! You'll never know if you don't try.

Note: There will be NO Training this Saturday 11th August 2007 to respect the Israk Mikraj Celebration. We'll see you Tuesday.

Pictures coming soon.......
