Mixed Social Information

We are going to run a double elimination bracket with drawn teams This starts at 6pm sharp so Players are expected to be there at 5:45pm. The schedule, teams and draw are shown below.

What a great start to the National Beach Handball Championship for 2023, with nearly thirty players out on the sand we kicked off the Championship with a double elimination Mixed Tournament. There were some excellent skills on display from both our old hands and some great new talent.

The first round of games ended with clear victors but then every game following this ended in penalties. The Toru team after getting beaten in the first game fought through the loser’s bracket and won 3 penalty shootouts in a row to take home the Crown.

RESULTS

The Squads, coached by Timothy Rayner, represented New Zealand in Coolangatta at the Oceania Championships with historic results for both sides. The Women’s side beat Australia for the first time in an international match, but just fell short in the other two games, eventually settling for 2nd. The Men took Aussie the distance and in a thrilling penalty shootout beat the Australian side to take out first place. This is the first time that a NZ side has qualified for the World Championships by right.

The NZHF wishes to thank Handball Australia for hosting the event. Keep a sharp eye on our socials to follow the boys along their World Champs Journey.
