Competitions
Our age group squads currently compete in EHF Championships, the tier below the Europeans. This competition runs consecutively for men and women, across the two age groups respectively. For example, in 2022, M20 and M18 competed. In 2023 W19 and W17 will compete.
The IHF also run biennial IHF Trophy competitions for M18/M20 (even years) and W17/W19 (odd years), usually during October/November.
The senior squads' main events are the Euro and World Championship qualifiers, which are traditionally played in November for the women, and January for the men.
The men’s team also compete in the biennial IHF Emerging Nations Championship (effectively a ‘B’ World Championship), usually played in June of odd years. We are hoping that the IHF will begin a women’s Emerging Nations Championship in 2024.
In addition to the above official competitions, the GB teams also participate in friendly tournaments and matches every season.
