We are extremely proud to announce that this year San Francisco CalHeat has been selected to receive a grant from The Olympic Club Foundation to help us get more schools playing in our youth league.

The Olympic Club Foundation (https://www.olympicclubfoundation.org/) has a mission to “raise funds and make grants to non-profits in the 9 Bay Area counties that provide organized athletic programming to children and teens from low income homes with the belief that their participation in sports will enrich their life by teaching them leadership skills, teamwork, confidence, and perseverance among countless others.”

If it happens on a court or a field, in a pool or in a ring, our goal is to see all kids receive a chance to participate in a sport at any level. It is our core belief that participation in organized athletics enriches young lives and develops future community leaders. We are proud to have impacted the lives of more than 225,000 kids participating in 40+ different sports at over 200 nonprofit organizations in the Bay Area.

Team Handball is now one of those 40+ different sports supported by The Olympic Club Foundation and we hope this is the beginning of a fruitful partnership. We are now reaching out to qualifying schools and we can not wait to share more news about them as we confirm their participation.
