Practicing with the team
People who have signed the required team forms and paid their membership and practice dues are welcome, and strongly encouraged, to attend the team's weekly practices.
Practices are run by volunteer coaches for both the men's and women's teams. The team captains along with the coaches form a coaching team that meets regularly and discusses the general plans for team practices and tournaments. Current members of the coaching team are Andre Beliveau, Sonja Hansen, Jordi Martorell, Sarah Whitley and Faycal Guedj. Any official complaints or suggestions regarding practice session or other technical handball issues should be directed to the coaching team.
