ABOUT

Team up with tomorrow

 

The game of elite handball is much bigger than the court itself. Professionalizing the own holistic career approach is therefore a key factor of success. Respect Your Talent is therefore dedicated to helping aspiring players gather awareness, knowledge and skills alongside the game to become an even better, more complete athlete.
In the programme’s pioneering approach, some of the world’s best handball players supported by leading field experts inspire and instruct young athletes covering topics such as dual career, anti-doping, mental fitness, media, nutrition, sports law, or regeneration. Furthermore, the programme will serve as a central source of competence, assisting the European handball family with training, research and network opportunities to foster sustainable pathways of young players.

What we do

 

The EHF aims to create player environments that allow European talents to grow from grassroots level to elite handball. As an essential part of this mission, Respect Your Talent was launched in 2019 to gradually build a rich portfolio of activities targeting both talented players (Future of Handball) and their handball ecosystems (Talent Environment).
