History [ edit ]
The club was founded in 1984 following the continuously growing interest of handball in the San Francisco Bay Area . Back in 1979, Ray Gehrke,[6] California , began an intramural handball program at the Centerville Jr. High School. San Francisco CalHeat was subsequently created in an effort to centralize handball activities in one area.[6]
In 2011, San Francisco CalHeat became a non-profit organization exempt from Federal income tax under section 501 {c} (3 ) of the Internal Revenue Code.[4] Bernward Schwarte , President, and Jean-Marc Junique , Vice-President,[7]
In 2016, San Francisco CalHeat started a youth development program and handball league involving numerous schools in the San Francisco Bay Area such as Lycée Français de San Francisco and Leland High School (San Jose, California) . In 2019, the program culminated with the organization of summer and winter camps led by Claus Dalgaard-Hansen, former member of the Denmark men's national handball team , and David Degouy, assistant coach and handball academy director of Montpellier Handball .[8]
In 2019, the club got even more exposure abroad after Nicolas Raemy , player of Wacker Thun and longstanding member of the Switzerland national handball team , helped the team win the US men's national championship[9] [10] [11]
In 2021, the club won the North American and Caribbean Men's Club Championship and qualified for the IHF Super Globe .[12] AlWehda , the Saudi Arabian champion, Al Noor Handball Club , and Al Duhail , the 2020 Asian Men's Club League Handball Championship .
In 2022, the club won another US Men's National Championship in Adrian, Michigan .[13] New York City THC .
One year later, in 2023, the club won both the US Men's National Championship and the Women's Open Division in Spokane, Washington . This is the first time a US handball club wins both the men's and women's national competition in the same year. This also marks the seventh national title for the men's team, tied with New York City THC . A few months later, the club won the North American and Caribbean Men's Club Championship and qualified for the IHF Super Globe .[14] [15]
On October 9, 2023, San Francisco CalHeat became the 105th member of Forum Club Handball , following in the footsteps of New York City THC and Detroit Handball Club .
