The crazy handball city ready to welcome Europe's elite

FEATURE: One look into Bitola's past unlocks Eurofarm Pelister's future potential ahead of a long-awaited EHF Champions League comeback

If you decide to take a stroll down the always-busy pedestrian street called Shirok Sokak in Bitola, you are going to notice immediately that the mood of the locals is significantly improved. And the reason is a very simple one, but an extremely important one for them. HC Eurofarm Pelister won the Macedonian Super League title after 18 long years and thus, secured a place in the Machineseeker EHF Champions League.

The Green and Whites are set to take part among the Europe's elite for the first time since 2005/06 - their foray into the competition in 2019/20 was only within the old second tier groups C and D format - as the citizens of the City of Consuls are optimistic that the tide has finally turned, and their time is now.
