EHF Champions League season starts with club workshop
With the start of the new EHF Champions League season just over a week away, officials from the 32 teams competing in the competitions participated in a two-day workshop this week.
The workshop, which took place in Vienna on Tuesday and Wednesday this week, enabled EHF Marketing GmbH and the European Handball Federation to outline changes and brief clubs on a variety of topics relevant to the 2021/22 season, including an introduction to the new Covid-19 guidelines for the upcoming campaign, as well as the continued evolvement of the competition’s digital eco-system and the official EHF Champions League song.
The annual workshop also gave EHFM, the EHF and participating clubs the opportunity to maintain and strengthen their working relationships, discuss best practice and exchange ideas. Topics including competition rules, communication, sponsorship, marketing and implementation were also discussed in detail.

Following the completion of the workshop, attention now turns to action on the court with the start of the 2021/22 season fast approaching.
