The European Handball Championship has developed significantly since its inception in 1994. The popularity of the game has grown ever since, by constant improvements in the product in order to meet the requirements of the media, the sponsors and the fans. It offers sponsors a strong handball product, delivering added value through a wide range of marketing tools.
