The Olympic Development Program

Partille Cup has, together with the International Handball Federation (IHF), started a project called “Handball for future youth”. This project is supported by the Olympic committee.

Purpose
The purpose of this project is to give undeveloped, but serious trying handball nations a real chance to get a platform for handball. We want to create a lifelong interest for sport and handball in particular. We also want to give leaders and players a basic education of handball in both theory and practice. The players shall also be inspired, not only in their role as players, but also to be a future leader inspiring schools and teachers/adults/leaders to set up clubs, starting competitions and clinics.

IHF has chosen 25 countries that Partille Cup will invite for a longer stay in Gothenburg. The goal for 2010 is to have 12 teams, 6 boys and 6 girls teams, with their leaders for a 14 days stay to be educated in handball. Partille Cup will arrange accommodation, clinics, training and matches for these teams.
