Support the Women's Classic
This year's USHA Women's Classic Tournament at Los Caballerous is April 24-27, 1997. Like last year, the tournament committee is selling lottery tickets to raise money for the event. Last year's lottery was a tremendous success enabling the committee to offer generous prize money as well as travel money for all Classic participants.

The USHA is asking handballers throughout the country to help sell as many tickets as possible as a show of support for this important event. Lottery tickets cost $100. Join the MSHA in purchasing a chance for great prizes and a way to support the women in handball!

For details contact Debbie Shelgren at (714) 857-4695 (h) or (714) 452-1403 (w) or contact the USHA.
