Hola all,

I'm from Melbourne in Australia, and am staying in Barcelona for 6 weeks before I spend the rest of 2009 travelling around some of Europe, and then Central and South America. I am taking Spanish classes while I am in Barcelona, and have the afternoons and evenings free... I play a lot of European handball back at home, and I really miss it!聽 I would love to find a female handball club to train with for the 5 more weeks that I am in Barcelona for, but am having trouble finding much information on the internet... does anyone know any intermediate level clubs I could possibly train (or even play a few games) with?! I'm 24, and have been playing handball at a reasonable level in Australia for 6 years.

Thanks so much!
Kate

Hola,

Handball is called Handbol in Catalan, which is the organising body.

This is their website, in Catalan:

And this is the contact information for a club in BCN:

ADRIANENC, HANDBOL
Adre莽a: AV. RAMON DE PENYAFORT, S/N
Localitat: SANT ADRIA DE BESOS
CP: 08930

Tel猫fon contacte : 629546982

Lloc web :
Fax: 933057813
Adre莽a electr貌nica perelopez@asme.es

I have chosen that one at random as it was the first one that was in BCN, they can hopefully help you.

Failing that, type "handbol" into a google.cat search engine and click on the Federaci贸 site.

If you still have trouble, drop another note.

Cheers,

Oreneta

Thanks so much for your quick response! I will try them - it's helpful to know handball is handbol in Catalan... I had been searching using balonmano. Gracias! Kate
