STRATEGIC PLAN | GREAT BRITAIN British Handball, England Handball and Scottish Handball have taken huge strides to capitalise on the legacy of the London 2012 Olympics. IHF funding through the New Markets’ Project has been instrumental in the rise in popularity and participation of handball in Great Britain (GB) since the partnership began in 2015. The project is currently in its second phase. Support from the project covers grassroots activities in England and Scotland as well as the four GB age group national team programmes (F17, F19, M18 and M20). The England Handball Association (EHF) and Scottish Handball Association (SHA) are both very active and seeing a lot of success at the grassroots level. 1,700 teams took part in this year’s EHA Schools Championship, 300 more than last year. The GB age group teams train monthly and participate in a number of competitions gaining valuable experience. There are about 130 players in the four programmes, which remain primarily self-funded by players and coaches. The age group teams have competed in 12 official championships (IHF Trophy or EHF Championship) in the past four years. Great Britain have also seen a number of players sign professional contracts with second division teams in Spain, Sweden, Portugal and France, first division teams in Portugal, and some lower divisions in other countries. Additionally, three GB coaches are coaching teams in the second and third divisions in Norway. One of these coaches, Scott Harrington led Sola to an undefeated season capturing the second division title and a promotion to the Norwegian Elite League. 2019 RESULTS 3rd IHF Men’s Emerging Nations Championships: 4th Women’s U19 EHF Championships 2019: 10th .

Study on Sports Agents in the European Union
STUDY ON SPORTS AGENTS IN THE EUROPEAN UNION A study commissioned by the European Commission (Directorate-General for Education and Culture) November 2009 KEA – CDES – EOSE: Study on sports agents in the European Union 2 KEA – CDES – EOSE: Study on sports agents in the European Union EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. Overview of the study In March 2007, the European Parliament invited the European Commission to assist football bodies and organisations in improving the regulations governing sports agents 1. In July 2007, the European Commission indicated in its White Paper on Sport 2 that it would “ carry out an impact assessment to provide a clear overview of the activities of players’ agents in the EU and an evaluation of whether action at EU level is necessary, which will also analyse the different possible options ”. The European Commission’s terms of reference for this study confirm that the European Commission “ wants to have an analysis of the situation regarding sports agents in all the sports they deal with”. The aim of the study is therefore to examine the situation of sports agents in the European Union and to identify, analyse and describe the questions that their activities give rise to as well as the solutions that have already been provided by public and/or private actors, thus enabling the European Commission to assess – on the basis of the data collected, the problems identified and the analyses carried out – whether intervention is required and, if so, at what level and in what form. The study develops, for the first time, a European outlook on the issue of sports agents.
