Be Well and Stay Safe!
From Lou Serrone…
Handball Community – the cases of Covid 19 are on the increase in the metro area not at zero or declining. It is with a saddened heart that the KCAC Board of Directors has made a decision that the risk of COVID 19 exposure in a full blown 3-Wall Tournament Venue, is an unsafe risk to the participants and unsafe risk to 60 plus visitors coming to watch 90 plus players over a 3 day period of time. Therefore as we typically know it the traditional Quirk World Invitational with all the many out of town players, guests and fans will not be held this year.
Local KC Players – It may be possible to run an inhouse tournament this year as we can limit the matches per day and limit the daily participants etc.
Stay tuned.
Spaghetti Out!
PS To all the out of town participants we are truly sorry.
The KCAC Board of Governors decided to combine the KC-Three Wall (the Nasty) with the Paul Quirk World to be held on August 6-9 at the KCAC outdoor courts. The KCAC has re-opened but will continue to adhere to the requirements as proposed by the United Government of Wyandotte, Kansas. Please reference the link below for citywide rules on gathering and social distancing.
It is with a heavy heart to report that Gary Brake’s wife, Mary has recently passed away. Gary is from St. Louis and a close friend to the KC handball family. Please keep Gary and his family in your prayers.
Based on the announcement by the Unified Government of Wyandotte County, KS that all non essential activities be suspended, The Kansas City Athletic Club will be closed beginning on March 24, 2020 through April 24, 2020. This is subject to change based on further announcements from the Unified Government.

It is with a heavy heart to report that St. Louis Handball legend Phil “The Irish Whip” McLaughlin has passed away. Phil was a tremendous player late into his life and could generate awesome power on the ball for a player of his age. In addition to being a great player, he was an extremely nice and pleasant person off the court as well. To our brothers in St. Louis, sorry for your loss.
Good luck to our KC Handballers competing in MO Doubles this weekend
