HANDBALL Adam Goldsmith believes Maccabi GB’s new handball club can follow in the footsteps of the futsal team and claim national glory.

Competing in the London Developmen­t League, MGB are looking for male players aged 16 and above who will work under experience­d head coach Frank Wuggenig with a view to competing at future Maccabiah and European Maccabi Games.

“Handball is one of the fastest growingspo­rtsinthewo­rld,”saidGoldsm­ith. “It is a fast-paced and the fundamenta­ls are very easy to pick up, so don’t think you have to have years of experience to play.

“We have a fantastic, well-run set up already in place for the new season, including a top-class coach in Frank.

“This is the perfect opportunit­y to take up a new sport, compete in a league at a high level and be part of the first ever all-Jewish UK Handball team.”
