I’ve had great feedback from the educators about your sessions, they all think you’re an amazing facilitator and the children are so engaged and love it!
Thanks for all your hard work and support over the holidays, greatly appreciated.
We had an incredible experience with Dan and his team at Handball Australia!
They ran a fun and energetic handball party for my son’s 7th birthday last weekend after he had requested a “handball party”. They were extremely well-organised and fully prepared, which made the whole event run so smoothly.
What really stood out was how well Dan engaged with the kids — he was enthusiastic, patient, and had every child involved and smiling. He also did a great job of checking in with us regularly, asking for feedback to make sure we were happy with how he was running the party and well suited to the kids' energy and comfort levels.
It’s clear that Dan genuinely cares about making sure every child has a great time while learning and playing. We couldn’t be happier with his service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fun, thoughtful, and professional kids party entertainer! Thanks again Dan and team!
We had the absolute pleasure of having Dan from Handball Australia run a birthday party for my son over the weekend, and it was fantastic!
Dan was incredibly engaging, energetic, and knew exactly how to keep the kids entertained. My son had an amazing time, and all of his friends were raving about how much fun they had. It was the perfect mix of active play and organized games, and Dan handled everything so smoothly. Highly recommend for a stress-free, action-packed birthday party that kids will love!
Thank you Handball Australia for being such a wonderful organisation!
I still recall whenever the words, 'Handball Australia' is mentioned, all the kids eyes would just light up...!
Our kids are now in highschool but we feel so blessed to have part of Handball Australia since it started 9 years ago.
Handball Australia's program for skills training and coaching is so unique, it is not offered anywhere else but has been a truly wonderful service for our kids not just physical skills and learning the game, but also social, and emotional development.
Accessing to these services has been the single best decision we have made as parents for both our daughter and son in their primary years.
I am so glad I attended a 'preparing your child for school' session those years ago where the services Handball Australia provides were recommended as a must by the paediatric OT and Speech therapists. Kids otherwise have no structured support in the playground, so it really is a good test to how well they are coping.
I have also thoroughly enjoyed standing by the sidelines with the many other parents at the inter-schools weekend competition over the years. It allowed us as parents to be a part of what the kids play at school. These competitions and the holiday camps make it possible for parents to experience what our kids spend hours doing each week.
I love that it is a co-ed game too. Afterall, it is the reality of the world...
Thank you Handball Australia!
Dan and the team from Handball Australia are amazing.
They hosted 20 kids at my son’s birthday party. The kids had the best time, and as a parent I could sit back and relax. It was the best party my son has had!!!
We had an amazing experience with Dan from Handball Australia, the birthday party was incredible! The kids were fully engaged and had an absolute blast playing. The energy and excitement throughout the party were fantastic, and it was great to see all the children so happy and involved.
What stood out the most was the respect embedded in the game and encouraged among the kids. It created such a positive and inclusive atmosphere where everyone felt valued and had fun together. HA was seamless, and Dan did a great job ensuring every child was included.
Highly recommend this for a fun, active, and well-run birthday party! Dan will support you from preparing til the end. Thanks heaps Dan!
Thanks so much for the kind words and all your work with McAuley on Monday and Tuesday. The kids all had a blast and we would love to have you back next year!
I will definitely be printing those rules and posting them in all the classrooms and on the playground.
Thanks again, it is much appreciated!
My two boys, ages 9 and 6, had some private handball sessions with Dan during the school break at our place and it was an awesome experience.
Dan is friendly, professional and excellent with kids. He set up a handball court in our courtyard and taught my boys all the rules of handball, played games and had lots of fun. I’m extremely grateful for the experience. My 6 year old who had never played handball before, came home from school yesterday and told me he played handball with all his friends at lunch time.
I was so pleased. Thanks so much Dan!
We as the parents were so impressed with the control you had of the kids, keeping their attention with all the various activities- it was absolutely perfect, so thank you!
The children had lots of positive feedback and the team said you're very engaging and have the kids "eating out the palm of your hand" with lots of positive behaviour techniques.
A big hit! Your price point is considerably lower than other incursions, and it's more engaging than the majority.
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for managing my boys' birthday party so brilliantly!
All the kids had an absolute blast, and my boys were thrilled. As a parent raising special needs kids, I particularly appreciated your professionalism and focus on the children. The way you kneeled to speak with them during conflicts, managed rules and boundaries so clearly, and resolved any issues quickly and effectively was really impressive. You struck the perfect balance of being firm when needed while still keeping everything fun and engaging.
Dan ran a handball comp for a birthday party for us and it was great!
Kids loved it and it’s a great way to keep them active, learning skills and having fun all at the same time.
My kids have been to a few of the school handball comps and absolutely love them.
They’re so well run and fun with just the right level of competitiveness. Dan held my son’s birthday party on the weekend and it was a huge success. Everyone had a great time and I would highly recommend him.
My son Jacob attended camp this week at Moore Park.
This is his second time participating, the first was a competition in June. I just wanted to provide some positive feedback, particularly to Dan. Jacob isn't hugely into sport, and this is really the first time he's shown an interest in attending something sporty without us having to really encourage him. The way you run the camps/comps is so inclusive, teaching skills beyond just technique, such as sportsmanship, respect and resilience. I am highly impressed and think you all do a great job.
Cambridge Park Public School welcomed Dan and his team to revitalise handball for our students.
Dan provided coaching to all K-6 classes including our special education unit. He collaborated with our students to develop school rules for our handball and coached our students to understand these. We have now seen an increase in handball at play times and a decrease in incidents as students know the rules of handball. We will certainly engage Dan and Schoolyard Handball Australia again.
I have heard nothing but positive feedback from the lessons last week. The kids are buzzing with handball fever which is exactly what we wanted.
Thank you and your team so much!
My daughter had such a great day at your moore park camp. So good for her confidence.
This company is great...The children were always engaged and the activities suited all children with varying skills in handball.
Thank you so much for attending Tyndale vacation care. We can't wait to have you back!
We are so proud of all the OLGC students who participated in the comp!
Thank you again for letting our students shine on the handball courts.
We booked Handball Australia as a Vacation Care incursion. The children loved this incursion and said it was one of their favourite activities.
Dan was very organised, timely and clear with communication. Dan had lots of positive incentives and rewards which kept the children engaged. Expectations of the children were clear and consistent from the outset and the children responded very well to this. High levels of engagement and lots of positive feedback - will definitely book this incursion again. Thank you!
Thank you, Dan, for providing our holiday care program a fun and engaging activity
Thank you especially for your patience with the children; you were able to really get all the children to participate and they are now eager to play handball together. We will book again.
Handball Australia hosted a fantastic event at our school during vacation care. The handball sessions were well organised by Dan who demonstrated professionalism and enthusiasm throughout. The various handball activities captivated the children and the positive atmosphere created an enjoyable experience. The kids had an absolute blast!
I have had the best reviews about your program and that our staff/children absolutely loved it.
Thanks so much for visiting us - the children LOVED it!
The 20 years teaching was evident and you have been the most professional incursion provider we've worked with.
Thank you so much Dan
The boys were all very excited to show their trophies yesterday
I am sure it will draw even more students next year as Handball is a major activity in our lunch times
Thank you, Dan!
Yes, the kids really had fun and have asked to have you again.They played handball most of the day. The workshop allowed children to learn new skills in a structured manner based on their age groups. The involvement of children in working out the rules and the emphasis on sportsmanship align with MTOP Outcome 1.4, which promotes a sense of belonging and connecting with others. I was really happy to see Dan, our instructor, recognising not only the winners, but also sportsmanship. It was also nice to see the children supporting each other.
Thank you so much for your awesome feedback!
Everyone said you were fantastic with the children, you gave a lot of guidance and clear instructions and they all had a blast.
Was a real testament to your program.
Kids really enjoyed themselves and were excited to show their parents the award they won.
Thanks so much!
Thank you for providing him with such a great lesson, building his skills and his confidence. I love that you were constantly reinforcing about having a "healthy conversation" and for Harrison (my son) to be assertive
Thanks so much Dan!
You ran a wonderful incursion!
You are truly amazing at what you do!
Michael and I cannot thank you enough for the amazing party you put on for the boys. They had the best time and I received so many messages and compliments regarding the party. The kids absolutely loved it. You are truly amazing at what you do. Thank you for making our lives so incredibly easy and for making the day so seamless.
Head coach Dan is terrific with the kids.
They learn new skills, and a lot about good sportsmanship - all while having so much fun. Time just flies by. Thumbs up from our whole family!
