Dundee Handball Club was formed in 2011 as a result of the need for the sport in Dundee by foreign players. In its first year, the handball club only hosted a men's team and was based at the ISE,[1] University of Dundee[2] Campus, Dundee, Tayside, Scotland.
Dundee Handball Club is affiliated to the Scottish Handball Association[3] and currently competes in the Scottish Handball League.[4] With the entrance of Dundee Handball Club into the Scottish Handball League the competition, between the teams within the league, has grown stronger. Dundee Handball Club had a good first year as they finished 5th in the Scottish Handball League. The men's team also reached the Final stage of the Scottish National Handball Cup, beating both RGU Aberdeen HC in the Quarter-final stage and Ravenscraig HC in the Semi-final stage. They lost to Edinburgh HC in the Final, but DHC showed they are a competitive club and a strong rival for all teams in the Scottish Handball League.
In their second year, Dundee Handball Club established the first Women's Handball team in Dundee, with players from all over Europe. The ladies went on to compete in the Scottish Handball League, finishing last but gaining a tremendous amount of experience. They went on to compete in the Scottish National Handball Cup and reaching the Semi-final stage, where they withdrew due to the lack of players available to compete. The men's team, with 1 years experience managed to finish in 4th place in the Scottish Handball League, above newcomers RGU Aberdeen HC and just below veterans Glasgow HC. In the cup fixtures, the men beat RGU Aberdeen HC in the quarter-final stage and managed to give Tryst HC a run for their money in the Semi-final stage, but lost to, Champions and Cup winners 2012/2013, Tryst HC.
The club purports to welcome students and non-students of all ages, abilities, genders and nationalities and draws players from the student body at both University of Dundee[2] and Abertay University.[5] DHC is run by a committee of two handball dedicated individuals (Jamie Lau & Stelios Nikolaou), but also works in partnership with SportDundee [6] (Dundee City Council).[7] and ActiveSchools Dundee[8]
