United States Handball Association

The United States Handball Association (USHA) is the national governing body for American handball in the United States, a game played mostly in that country. The organization is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit corporation which promotes the game and governs its rules.[1]

Among the organization's specific activities are the sponsorship of tournaments, both amateur and professional, the publication of Handball Magazine, and the sponsorship and management of the Handball Hall of Fame in Tucson, Arizona.[1]

The USHA was founded in 1951 by Bob Kendler of Chicago. In 1982, the national headquarters moved to Tucson. A board of directors runs the organization.[1] The current president of the USHA is Denis Hogan.[2] In 2008, the organization reported having 8,500 members.[1] Some members such as champion player Albert Apuzzi of Coney Island have helped run tournaments.[3][4]

Leading players

The associations Hall of Fame is run to designate and honor top handball players from various times and in the different varieties of the game.[1]

Among the 38 players in the U.S. Handball Association Hall of Fame are Albert Apuzzi,[3] Fred Lewis, Joe Platak, Paul Haber, Oscar Obert, Vic Hershkowitz, Simon Singer, and Jim Jacobs.[1]

Tri-oval

Shape, descriptor of racetracks A tri-oval shape A tri-oval is a shape which derives its name from the two other shapes it most resembles, a triangle and an oval. Rather than meeting at sharp, definable angles as the sides of a triangle do, in a tri-oval these angles are instead rounded into smooth curves.[1] While an oval has four turns, a tri-oval has six. More formally, according to the four-vertex theorem, every smooth simple closed curve has at least four vertices, points where i...
