TEAM PROFILE<br />
From the highs of qualifying for major events like the EHF <strong>EURO</strong> 2012 or the<br />
World <strong>Champ</strong>ionship 2013 to lows like failing to qualify for the EHF <strong>EURO</strong> 2014<br />
and the World <strong>Champ</strong>ionship 2015, women’s handball in the Czech Republic has<br />
been on quite a roller coaster ride - and potentially the successful qualification for<br />
the Women’s EHF <strong>EURO</strong> 2016 marks the start of a new high.<br />
After the Czech federation started to focus on their youth programmes, including<br />
hosting YAC EHF <strong>EURO</strong> and World <strong>Champ</strong>ionship events, a huge number of the<br />
national team players started playing abroad, mainly in Germany, Hungary and<br />
Poland. One of the team’s current top players is Iveta Luzumova from German<br />
champions and EHF <strong>Champ</strong>ions League participants Thüringer HC.<br />
