The United States of America could get the professional handball league starting from 2023.
Verizon is one of America’s biggest marketing spenders led by CEO Hans Vestberg (former president of Swedish Olympic Committee), made the partnership with the USA Team Handball as a sponsor.

As a new sponsor of USA Team Handball, Verizon is hoping to put the sport on the map domestically. Its rights deal (a one-year agreement with options to go through 2024) will put the Verizon logo on the front of the NGB’s uniforms, and grant the communications giant a “Founding Technology and Content Provider” designation, through which it hopes to grow the sport. New sponsor dollars are always impressive; having the NGB’s first non-endemic sponsor is a revelation.


Will be fun to see how they are going to arrange this. It is said to be the most American sports that most Americans have not heard of. :D

Also, European Championship just finished. Spain defended the title, Croatia second, Norway third and Slovenia fourth. One of the most surprising tournaments with favorites like France and Spain going out after the first round and a new potential powerhouse in sight - Portugal (knocked out Sweden and France :crazy: ).


Why the hell does it take 3 years to start a league?

Denmark and Egypt just had the most insane game. Freak-show to say the least.
