Welcome to the United States Handball Association (USHA), the National Governing Body for the sport of handball. The USHA is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit corporation, dedicated to the growth and development of the sport for all age levels. As the governing body, the USHA is responsible for administering and sanctioning over 100 tournaments per year, including the National Championships in one-wall, wallball, three-wall and four-wall. The USHA publishes Handball Magazine, the game's only national publication and the printed resource for the sport. The non-profit United States Handball Association is really all things to all its members since it is the only association of its kind for the sport, servicing men, women, and juniors from novice to the professional level. For the past 70 years, local, regional and national tournaments have been sponsored by the United States Handball Association, and over the years, a strong network of handball players and administrators has been developed. Currently, the organization is represented by 50 State Chairs and 9 Regional Commissioners. Competition is held each year at the state, regional, and national level for both singles and doubles for men, women and children from 11-and-under to 80-and-over. Additionally, competition is held in numerous ability classes, including Novice. Currently the Association has over 6,000 members. The national office is located in Tucson, Arizona. The Board of Directors consists of 15 elected officials. While we're very proud of the association and the camaraderie of the sport, handball players are more proud of the game.
