In just its second season, the San Diego Team Handball Club took 2nd place in the 2nd division at the USA Team Handball National Championships. One of the club’s founders, Olivier Izacard discusses the formation of the club and their plans for the club. Here are some of the topics we discussed:
- How the club got started
- The desire to creat a “club family” similar to his experience in France
- How the Paris Olympics aided recruitment
- How the team is mostly San Diego based
- The demographic challenges of starting a club in the U.S. even in a decent sized metropolitan area like San Diego
- Plans to start a youth program
- The possibility of starting a collegiate program at San Diego State or other colleges in the local area.
