British Handball Association Performance Group
The role of the Performance Group will be to provide the strategy and high level guidance for the GB National Team programmes, support the National Team coaches and managers with regard to the running of the GB senior and age group national teams and develop and oversee the BHA high level coach development programme.
It’s scope covers all the GB national teams, at senior and age group level, as well as the elite coaching programme in the UK (above level 2).
Performance Group Members
There are four voting members of the BHA Performance Group, one representative each from EHA and SHA, and two independent members. In addition all GB national team coaches are non-voting members of the BHA Performance Group. At present the BHA Chair is also chairing the BHA Performance Group, having already fulfilled this role prior to the London 2012 Olympics, but the intention is that once the new BHA articles of association are adopted, a new independent Chair of the BHA Performance Group will be appointed.
