Given the ongoing COVID19 pandemic the EHF has decided to make the following changes to its Development Programmes for 2021.
EHF vice president Carola Meyer said “We understand that some people will be disappointed that we are moving / changing the dates of our Development programmes for 2021. However, we want to continue to deliver our programmes safely and enable people to travel to events without very strict restrictions or to have to interact on video conference events. Of course, all the programmes below are still dependent on us being back to more normal travelling. I cannot thank the organisers, our committee members and our staff enough for the work that has been done behind the scenes to make all of this happen.”
