Fans full of festive cheer in handball Christmas competition

Many handball fans answered the call to send in their funny, exciting and beautiful handball Christmas photos, with two tickets to the 2015 VELUX EHF FINAL4 on 30/31 May up for grabs.

Numerous entries were sent in and each and every creative contribution to the competition was greatly appreciated.

The entries clearly show that handball and Christmas can be linked together perfectly, whether it was training in Christmas costumes, a handball under the Christmas tree or the gift of team merchandise to a loyal fan, the photos sent certainly captured the spirit of the season and you can enjoy a selection of them here.

Despite the many worthy entries, there could only be one winner. Congratulations to Daniel Velkov from Germany, whose photo story has ensured that he will be one of 20,000 spectators to see which team will be crowned winners of the 2014/15 VELUX EHF Champions League season.

We look forward to welcoming you and your companion to Cologne’s LANXESS arena in May.
