Basically this guy (good friend of mine) got three matches suspension for insulting the ref, walking toward them and only being stop by team mates. Hence he got sent off. He kept insulting the ref from the stands for the entire 2nd half. The team got fines €80 because let the players keep going with the insults.
Ah, this is good stuff, good handball!! Missing it a bit.....
I think I should publish more of this.....just to relax a bit....

Some of you migth have noticed that many of the red spot in the Visitor Map have disappeared.
Dear all, It is my privilege to inform you that the inaugural Cork Handball Tournamentshall commence on 29th/30th November 2008 in the UCC Mardyke Arena, Western Rd.,Cork, Ireland. It is located near UCC on the south-west side of the city. Andit will be played on a proper full size handball court!!!
The format of the tournament will be based on a round-robin format, with thetop two teams progressing to the final. The entry fee is 60 Euro per team.
It would be advisable that you stay in Cork on Friday night if your team arebad morning travellers as we have the hall on both days at 12.00h until 18.00h.
If you are interested put a comment here, with your contact and UCC will get back to you.
ALL,
before telling about the suspension of the senior league, let me remind you one important thing!
Two Clubs haven't registered anybody yet!! Lughnasa F and Dublin International have 0 (zero) players registered.
Let me stress one point. It is not only that I want a record of all players, but the IOHA insurance will cover only the registered players. Do not rely on last year registration as we have a seasonal membership, so last year membership is expired! If you are not registered for the season 2008/2009, you are not insured!! IOHA will not permit to any not-insured players to play in any IOHA competition. Most of you have access to the list of registered players on google documents.
Same apply to all junior players.
League suspension.
After the dark facts of the tri-nation (I wasn't there, I heard the two bells and only feeling I got is that it wasn't pleasant for anybody) the IOHA decided that players and all stakeolder must sign a code of conduct. Certain behaviours are not acceptable. IOHA understand that improvement must be achieved in many areas (such as refereeing/officials.) and will try to focus on these needs, but despite this, in a sport environment (expecially one with a small population like ours), unrespectful and violent behaviour is totally unjustified and not acceptable.
So, the board set up a working group which has the task to prepare the code of conduct that all IOHA members will be required to sign. Understanding that the league schedule preparation is full of limitations (hall availability and time) the working group will try to work on a resonable short timeframe and resume the league after Nov 8th.
M&F Senior Leagues schedule have been finalised and it is available to download (with other useful documents) in the "document box" in the right sidebar
Please note that IOHA continues in its effort in palying only in suitable sizes hall (20x32).
In this vision matches shall not be played in Maynooth (Kildare) , Col de hÍde (Lughnasa F), Collinstown (St.Pat's-Dub Int).

The boys section of the Dublin Open Olympic handball championships took place in Inchicore VEC on Wed 12th December. In all seven schools were represented at the event. Tallaght CS, Ballinteer CS, St Tiernan's, Drimnagh Castle, Greenhills College, Coolmine CS and Eurocampus, Clonskeagh ( an amalgamation of the German and french schools) This was a knock out competition from the strat. There were no seedings and the luck of the draw was all that kept you away from some really good teams. The competition was divided into 3 sections 1st year, second year and 3rd/4th year. The idea was that young boys would be able to play with their own class mates as opposed to other sports whereby 1 day either side of a date can put you in another age bracket. The games were fast and furious as each team knew that a loss meant an early shower. Coolmine hedged their bets with two 1st year teams but only their A-squad came close to winning eventually losing on the tightest of margins to St Tiernan's who had un earthed a gem of a player in Hungarian Fazekus, his shooting was unstoppable. in the other first round matches Tallaght St kilian's and Drimnagh castle all progressed. In the semi finals Tallaght easily brushed aside St kilians due to some fantastic team play from seasoned handballers from Lughnasa HC and a new find in craig Palmer who has been signed up by the Tallaght club. unfortunately for St tiernan's although they came up against a relatively new team in Drimnagh castle the castle had an ace up their sleeve. Ireland u-14 goalkeeper darragh Hallows played a personal duel against Fazekus with the Irish keeper coming out on top and his team scoring at will against the St Tiernan's keeper. However in the final a team of seasoned handballers from tallaght CS easily swept aside the Castle to win at 1st year level again in Olympic handball. the school that brought us handball in 1973 is rising again. The second years competition was a fantastic affair. Almost all teams had members of the u-15 Irish squad and the duels on the court made for breath taking games. Greenhills easily swept aside St Tiernan's, castle easily beat Eurocampus. But the match between Ballinteer and Castle was the best match of the day. Speed, jump-shooting, full contact defending the game had everything. Luke Moran with 6 goals and Jason Germaine also with 6 were the stars of the game. At the end they shook hands but in truth this was a war of attrition. Castle had some Irish squad players after this game some of the Ballinteer boys will be asked to join. In truth this was the final and even though Tallaght beat Greenhills by the 1 goal they were annihilated in the final. In the final of the 4th years the boys of Eurocampus beat Coolmine in what was Coolmine's worst display of the season. They never really got going but that was in large part to Julien eberle and his team mates, they kept the pressure on Coolmine all the time and when they eventually thought to mark Julien out of the game his team mates rowed in with some great goals. If you ever wanted your schol to try a different sport this is the time to do it. Boys and girls from Dublin, Wicklow and Kildare have played each other in 5 major tournaments this year and the number is growing. With professional refs at each tournament there is no doubt that Olympic handball is on the up and schools are now deciding to "Create their own Tradition" After the new year St Joseph's Rush, Maryfield College, St Paul's, Presentation terenure will all be joining the competition along with schools from Kildare, Wicklow, Meath, Galway, Mayo and Sligo. If you are interested in playing Olympic handball contact the IOHA on 01-6251165 or e-mail ioha@olympichandball.org or check out the website the Lughnasa Handball club website http://connect.southdublin.ie/lughnasahandballteam/

Proposed changes to be introduced in Senior Men’s League Rules.
Please download and read 2005/2006 rule from IOHA web.
--ON Season Club to Club player transfer
Currently the only rule is "players are allowed to only one transfer per year". No forms need to be submitted.
Change to "A transfer form need to be submitted signed by the two club secretary and the player"
This in order to have a record or transfers and having all clubs to acknowledge the transfer
Obviously still only one transfer is possible.
--OFF season Club to Club player transfer
Currently no rules exist, and players can freely change team every year.
Change to "Players are owned by the club for the current season and the next".
A transfer form needs to be submitted signed by the two club secretary and the player
This rule will protect clubs. UCD saw three of its players changing team over summer, without any note from the other club or the players themselves.
--Teams are responsible to book hall time for their home matches (minimum of 2 hours per match)
I understand the having my self doing the booking for all matches fro the full year is "handy". But it start getting annoying when I have to chase teams and hall management. Also UCD got charged by St Columbas for matches UCD didn't play and considered responsible for people behaviour.
--Each Team must register two referees
Teams will be penalised of 1 point per referee not registered
Referee individual registration cost 25€...to be paid by the referee.
Referee courses will be organized ad-hoc if required
This is in accordance with the referee development plan
--Each Team must register a Coach (either L0 or L1, or enrolled in a coaching course to be attend before the end of the league)
Teams will be penalised of 2 point if coach is not registered
Over 18 coach individual registration cost 15€...to be paid by the coach.
Under 18 coach individual registration is free.
This is in accordance with the coaching development plan
--Teams will be entered only if not payment to the IOHA are pending. In case of new clubs a brief description of financial status should be submitted.
IOHA reserves to refuse entry if feels that clubs cannot fulfil payment commitment.
A few thousand Euro are still due to the IOHA form the past season. This is unacceptable, and IOHA need to protect itself.
Proposed changes to be introduced by season 2008/2009
--Club not registering a Junior team will have the senior Team penalised of 1 point per each category. (U17-U15-U13)

Hi all.
just want to reming again that on April the 30th the senior mens league (women are also invited) will have a general meeting.
Since all or almost all teams will play in UCD the meeting will be held there. So just stay around after your match.
The time is not fixed yet, but I believe it will be sometime around 2.30/3 pm
We will discuss a bit how the senior league evolved since 2000, and how it is organised now. Then there will be a big open discussion on how it ran this year, and what can be changed.
Also some member of the organising commetee might need to be changed, so it will be a good chance to see who wants to take action.
Also important is the IOHA General Meeting (AGM). Here you can have a look at how the IOHA is organised, what they do,etc. Also you get to ask question and say someting if you need.
check the information at the link http://www.olympichandball.org/news/news/225/00226.html
the Annual General meeting of the Irish Olympic Handball Association will be held at SportHQ, 13 Joyce Way, Parkwest, Dublin 12 on Sunday May 14th at 12:00.
Remember if you miss these two chance....your complaining in January 2007 will be totaly a waste of your own energy.
Post comments below to get the ball rolling....

Dear all referees, teams heads and associated players,
The Irish Olympic Handball Association has put together a Refereeing Development Plan for 2006 - 2007. This, the first published edition of the plan, has undergone several versions prior to publication in March 2006. What is outlined is intended as the initial step in a difficultand lengthy process. The plan itself will be updated and revised on an ongoing basis. The onus is on all referees, players, coaches, and other interested parties to make the plan better by getting involved. Please discuss the plan, ask questions, suggest answers - contribute.
http://www.olympichandball.org/extras/downloads/refereeing.html
The first step involves a initial get together of referees, to discuss problems within the league - problems which are listed in the linked document. This meeting has been arranged on Tuesday 14th March at 20:00 in Starbuck's cafe on Dame Street. Anyone who wishes to contribute towards making change should attend. Anyone who cannot attend should let their views be known by sending an e-mail to Ciaran O Brannagain or by posting on this site

Results from day 1 Senior men's.
DIT - Dagda 51-20
Lughnasa - DCU 38-26
Please communicate result from St. Pat's - UCC and put comments to matches
UCC take the first trophy of the season.
UCC won the CUP (which is actually a Plate) after the second extra time in a match fought till the last minute with DIT. The final result was 35-32 for the Cork team. In my opinion it was was of thge most interesting matches I have seen in the last few years. Both teams have stong and skillfull players. A special mention is due to Emiliano Guevara, who step in gaol when UCC keeper was sent out with a red card. Emiliano saved two penalties and few shot in the final and hottest minutes of the match.
SEMIFINALS
Unfortunately Lughnasa was not able to field a team for this week end, and unfortunately it was not possible to find an alternative date and location, so Lughnasa had to forfait the macth in favour of DIT who pass directly to the final.
The Second semifinal was played between UCC and St. Pat's.
UCC came out as the winner, and they will play an Interesting final Vs DIT next sunday the 23rd of October in UCD at 3.30pm. All welcome to attend.
(please post comments to the match)
National CUP. Second Group.
UCC - DCU ?? anybody knows?? I believe UCC won.
St. Pat's - Ireland ?? as above??? Ireland won...right? can somebody put a comment?? and the results? and may be scorer ect??
