Several international matches for both women's and men's teams have been postponed due to the corona virus. The women's Olympic qualifier in Spain, which was to be played last week, was pushed to the future as was the men's Olympic qualifier in Germany April 17-19.
New dates for the Olympic qualifiers have not been set, but the European Handball Association has, on the other hand, set dates for both the women's European qualifiers and the men's World Cup qualifiers.
Instead of a away match against Northern Macedonia and home match against Portugal last week in May and double meet with the Czech Republic the following week, the final rounds of the women's European qualification will be carried out in tournament format.
New dates for the gentlemen
The matches will be played in the same arena on Wednesday 3 June until Sunday 7 June. Playground is not yet determined.
The men would in turn meet the winner of Turkey and Russia in the World Cup qualifier the first week in June, but it is now postponed to the end of the month. Sweden starts at home July 1st and ends away July 4th. Turkey and Russia settle in a double meeting the week before.
