men’s – has earned its reputation of being<br />
the most challenging tournament in the<br />
world of handball.<br />
The future of this outstanding event has<br />
already begun, with the 12th Women’s<br />
EHF EURO due to start very soon: From<br />
4 to 18 December, Svenska Handbollförbundet<br />
will be playing host to the best<br />
women’s teams of Europe due to compete<br />
in Stockholm, Kristianstad, Malmö, Helsingborg<br />
and Gothenburg. Judging by the<br />
performance that was on display in Sweden<br />
in 2006, the upcoming event is likely<br />
to break new records – particularly as the<br />
home team led by Isabell Gulldén, this<br />
year’s Champions League winner, will be<br />
among the favourites and eager to end the<br />
predominance of their Norwegian neighbours.<br />
In December 2018, the Fédération<br />
Française de Handball (FFHB) will welcome<br />
the best national teams taking<br />
part in a Women’s EHF EURO. Two years<br />
later, Denmark and Norway will again<br />
be hosting a mega-event. With hosts like<br />
these, one does not have to be a prophet<br />
to forecast a bright future for this<br />
tournament.<br />
