The British Handball Association is delighted to announce the 16-player squad selected to represent Great Britain at the upcoming M20 EHF Championship II 2026. Taking place in Prishtina, Kosovo from 12–19 July 2026, the tournament will see our young talent test themselves against top European competition in the Preliminary Round. GB will feature in a competitive field alongside Belgium, Bulgaria, Finland, Luxembourg, and Slovakia.

Led by Head Coach Zoran Lukacs and Assistant Coach Andre Gameiro, the squad features a brilliant mix of domestic talent from the likes of London GD, Kelvinside, and Nottingham, alongside European-based prospects playing in powerhouse handball nations like France, Spain, Germany, Iceland, and Denmark.

Pre-Tournament Training & Prep

To ensure the squad hits the ground running, the GB team will fly out to Prishtina early on the 8th July for an intensive three-day training camp. This vital preparation block will include four focused training sessions and an invaluable warm up friendly game against the Kosovo M20 national team, giving the boys their first taste of international match rhythm before the official tournament begins.
