GAA Handball's revamped Schools Membership Pack Special Offer is now live and open for order.
In testing times for Schools, we are offering special discount rates on Handballs, lower than cost price, to aid Schools to develop Handball among their pupils. We have a selection of four packs to choose from, and we will also include Coaching Manuals and Promotional items free of charge with every order.
Our Schools 1-Wall Initiative has seen close on 500 Handball walls being developed in Schools, both Primary & Secondary nationwide. Many Schools utilise existing block walls, whilst many have went one step further and erected purpose built wooden or concrete Handball walls. Check out some samples here.
"Handball is a perfect recreational game for Schools, with minimal equipment required. A great option for PE classes, and especially as a Break & Lunchtime activity for all ages. I have witnessed first hand how the game flourishes in school settings, and most pleasingly how it can be quickly and easily developed in areas not traditionally associated with the sport."
"It was through playing the game at break and lunchtimes during my own school days that I fostered the love of the game myself" noted National Development Officer Darragh Daly who oversees the initiative. "From a health and physical development perspective it has it all...improving pupils coordination, reaction time, agility, aerobic capacity, flexibility, and speed of thought."
Packs are ordered via the online link above and can be paid for by Card or Cheque.
