Last weekend saw the start of the new handball season and not only a step up to under 19s and men's handball, but a new team to get used to as I am now playing for Stroud.
I was looking forward to the increased phyisical and stamina demands as the games are 60 minutes as opposed to 40 minutes at under 16 level.
After a successful, but exhausting 5 day tournament in Viborg, Denmark at the beginning of August with The England Lions Under 16 Handball Team, my pre season training has been combined with working at 1610 Glastonbury Leisure Centre as an Activities Assistant.
Sixteen year old, TS5C supported athlete, Joe Nelson from Walton has just returned from Viborg in Denmark where he competed in the Generation Cup Handball Tournament.
Aspiring handball player, 16 year old Joe Nelson from Walton has booked a seat to Denmark in August to compete in The Generation Cup as part of a 16 strong England Handball Futures Programme.
