Appeal by Greek Handball Federation rejected

Greek Handball Federation unsuccessful in its bid to overturn decision by Disciplinary Commission at Women’s 17 EHF Championship

Appeal by Greek Handball Federation rejected

Following the decision to expel the Greek national team from the Women’s 17 EHF Championship, an appeal was lodged by the Greek Handball Federation.

After due consideration of all aspects of the case, including a statement from the Greek Handball Federation, the event’s Jury Commission upheld the decision of the Disciplinary Commission.

The Greek team will therefore play no further part in the event in FYR Macedonia and its fine of €25.000 was confirmed.
