TEAM PROFILE<br />
Poland enter the Women’s EHF <strong>EURO</strong> 2016 with a new head coach at the<br />
helm. At the beginning of July it was announced that Leszek Krowicki takes over<br />
the team that had been led by Kim Rasmussen, winner of the Women’s EHF<br />
<strong>Champ</strong>ions League with CSM Bucuresti in the 2015/16 season.<br />
The Rasmussen era was one of the most successful in the history of Poland’s<br />
women’s national team, reaching the semi-final of the World <strong>Champ</strong>ionship in<br />
2013 and 2015 under the Dane’s guidance, leaving Krowicki with big shoes to fill.<br />
However, at EHF <strong>EURO</strong> events Poland’s record is not that impressive so far.<br />
They participated in four final tournaments to date, with a 5 th place in 1998 being<br />
the best result to date.<br />
