Join Us in Growing the Future of Handball
​​For the first time in history, the sport of handball in America has a true national home—the United States National Handball Center. This groundbreaking achievement is the result of an unprecedented partnership between the United States Handball Association (USHA), the Missouri State Handball Association (MSHA), and the St. Louis Hinder Club (SLHC). Together, these organizations have united with one goal: to keep the spirit of handball alive and thriving for generations to come.
​
This center isn’t just a building, it’s a symbol of our shared passion and commitment to the game. It’s where champions will rise, young athletes will be inspired, and the handball community will come together like never before.
​
But to truly realize this vision, we need your support. Your donation will help us:
​
-
Expand programs that introduce handball to new players across the country
-
Support youth development and grassroots initiatives
-
Host national tournaments and showcase elite talent
-
Ensure that the sport we love continues to grow and evolve​
