Obviously as a player I want to handball included, but as an organization WPFG should be interested in why it should be kept active. Handball magazine keeps records, and New York, particularly NYC has the second largest number of players in the USA. Maybe rock climbing will work in Co, but last I checked, NYC has no mountain
