Extensive coverage for 3rd EHF Scientific Conference

The European Handball Federation (EHF) and the Union of University Handball Teachers (UUHT) will hold the third edition of the EHF Scientific Conference (Scientific and Practical Approaches) in Bucharest from 13 to 14 November 2015.

The goal of the Conference is to bring professional and scientific experts together in order to reflect on the medical aspects of handball, preparation and the game itself (including Beach Handball).

Almost 40 different topics have already been agreed upon and will be presented in either orally or poster form.

Prior to the presentations a three-hour long medical symposium will be held by a group of sport physicians (including Lior Laver (ISR) and Jesper Bencke (DEN) and ESSKA experts). For more information please refer to the final programme.

At the accreditation desk prior to the conference all participants will be provided with a booklet containing the various abstracts.

Following the conference 'The EHF Scientific Conference 2015 Book of Articles' will be published.

It will include all the notes and articles of the medical mini-symposium, along with the poster presentations, as well as ten additional articles that have been submitted but will not be presented.

The Organisational Committee would like to thank all authors and co-authors for their contributions.

The conference on social media

For the second time there will be extensive social media coverage throughout the conference.

Updates on the event will be posted on the EHF CAN Facebook page and on the EHF Media Twitter account.

Everyone can get involved in the online Twitter discussions through the official hashtag, #ehfSC.
