“The Snohomish County Sports Commission helped us turn the Seattle Handball Cup into a tournament teams look forward to. Tammy Dunn and Nathan Caferro supported us with economic funding, securing Everett Community College as our venue, and event logistics. A volunteer-run club couldn’t have managed all of that alone,” said Simon Jaeger, Seattle Handball Club tournament director and president. “Teams traveled from across the West Coast region, and the experience showed. Players enjoyed a well-organized event in a great facility, competed in a welcoming atmosphere, and left with a positive impression of Snohomish County. We’re excited to hold the third edition in March 2027 and grateful for the Commission’s partnership. We’d recommend them to any event organizer.”
