Handball tournament interest/signups (closed)

Postby Ancharmunn » Wed Aug 01, 2012 4:27 pm

Right then, Olympics aside it's been a good long while since there's been a handball tournament round these parts, though I'm aware that there's at least a handful of users who would be interested in such a competition. This therefore is a combined call for expressions of interest and signups.

I'd be quite willing to host such a tournament (using xkoranate), though if there is a preference for it a host bidding process could be opened up. Though I envisage the tournament as essentially a continuation of the Handball World Cups, I'm not entirely sure on the rights for using that particular name, so will refrain from it for now.

So, interested or have any questions? Fire away.

Though ponies playing handball (or hoofball) is a bit of a stretch, I'm sure I could send a team of humans to participate (they are a minority, but they do exist).
