The Malagasy Handball Federation (FMHB) is organizing, from August 2 to 10, the Madagascar championship for young people, including the categories minimes, cadets and juniors, boys and girls. This event, which will take place at the Gymnase Ankoay in Ankorondrano, will see the participation of approximately 40 teams from all over Madagascar. The objective of the FMHB is to provide Malagasy handball players with numerous opportunities to prepare for upcoming international competitions. This competition will also serve to detect promising talents who could join the national team pre-selection and strengthen our team for the IHF Continental Trophy, scheduled for November 1-7 in Ethiopia. “, explains Zo Rasolofoson, Secretary General of the FMHB. It should be noted that Madagascar will be the representative of Zone 7 in the cadet category for the IHF Continental Trophy. On the other hand, the situation of the juniors remains uncertain. During the last Zone 7 championship, the Reunionese were crowned champions, while the Akio finished vice-champions. Reunion, which joined the zone for the first time during the championship last May, is still waiting for official confirmation from the IHF concerning the designation of the representative of Zone 7 for the next tournament.
