To whom it may concern,
I am a native of Ullard.The club is now no longer running to the best of my knowledge and many of its members have now deceased.
I was wondering if in gather information and photos of handball allies throughout the country whether or not you have information or know where I might find it on the history and achievements of Ullard Handball Club.
Many thanks.
