How Györ and CSM develop youth teams

Find out how Györi ETO KC and CSM Bucuresti build their handball talents — and how important the EHF Youth Club Trophy is for them

A special premiere awaits on the fringes of the Raiffeisen Bank EHF FINAL4 2026 in Budapest: after the highly successful debut for the under-18 men’s teams, the stage is set for the first EHF Youth Club Trophy Women. The participants were confirmed following four intense qualification tournaments for the women’s under-17 sides: three Hungarian sides — Györi ETO KC, FTC and DVSC Kézilabda Akadémia — and one Romanian club — CSM Bucuresti — aim for the trophy.

During the weekend of 6/7 June, two clubs aim for trophies in both the EHF Champions League and the EHF Youth Club Trophy: Györi ETO KC and CSM Bucuresti. The sides lock horns in the semi-final of the younger age category competition.
