Bath Bombs Handball Club is an English Handball Club based in Bath, England and officially founded in 2015, although the team has existed and played matches for a few years previously. They play home games at the University of Bath campus, and compete in the South West Regional Development league,[1] the third tier of English Handball. Their main rivals include University of Bath HC and Stroud HC. They play in Blue and Gold home kit, and a White away kit.

History

The club was founded by Helen Polack, chair of the University of Bath HC from 2015 to 2016. Although the club was founded by members of the University of Bath Handball Club, it is not affiliated with the University, and as such is a separate club.

Bath Bombs was managed in its first season by Chris Bosley. They entered the South West Regional Development League for the 2015/16 season.[2] Bosley departed at the end of the season, to be replaced by Ben Hunt for 2016/17.[3]
