Presents Big-Blue Handball

Another Command Performance

Big Blue Handball is played around major cities like New York, Miami, Chicago, and Philadelphia. It has gained a lot of popularity in the Lehigh Valley over the last 15 years. This urban sport is like no other especially when it comes to the mental and physical aspects of the sport. It is in the top 5 for cardiovascular and endurance. This tournament a strong focal point in our community for our players and youths. Much like small ball handball but at a very much faster pace and a much speedier ball, the official ball is a pressure-less ultra blue racquetball (SkyBounce Ball 2 1/4 in. in diameter).
