France and Belgium to Co-Host 2030 Women's European Handball Championship

France and Belgium have been selected to co-host the 2030 Women's European Handball Championship, a decision announced by the French Handball Federation (FFHandball). This marks another significant event for France, which is also set to co-organize the men's championship in 2029 with Germany and will again host the men's European Championship in 2032 alongside Germany.

The FFHandball emphasized France's prominent position in both European and global handball through this announcement. The selection of the two nations for the 2030 women's tournament underscores a growing trend of multi-country hosting for major sporting events, allowing for shared resources and broader fan engagement.

While the tournament's location is set, the specific cities within France and Belgium that will host the matches are yet to be revealed. The announcement was made during the Men's Champions League Final Four event held in Cologne, adding to the excitement surrounding handball's major upcoming tournaments.
