Handball has many challenges similar to those in Life. The concepts found on the court such as cooperation, endurance, patience, respect and acceptance can be translated into Life Lessons that will enhance a young person's perceptions. The West 4th Handball Club shows young people that there are adults who care about the kind of human being they will be and gives them another perspective on their present conditions. Therefore, it is emphasized that whatever their Life may bring to them there is always a choice and nothing is insurmountable when one accepts challenge and uses it as a lesson. The Club is committed to them and the communities they reside in.

The West 4th Handball Club motto is, "This game is like Life; it's how you handle the ball you're given."
