Beach Handball: Sally Potocki and Jemima Harbort

Beach Handball is relatively new compared to its indoor cousin, but is one of the most dynamic sports going around.

On the eve of the 2024 World Champs in China, HER WAY chats exclusively to Sally Potocki and Jemima Harbort, the co-captains of the Australian team.

They share about their different journeys to discover the sport, the struggle for exposure and support in an increasingly crowded sports market, the headline-making moment where the sport made a stand against sexism, and why Beach Handball is perfect for Australia to embrace. Plus we ponder what might be a good nickname for the national team.
