EHF Euro Cup

EHF Euro Cup is a European handball competition for national teams, organized by the European Handball Federation.
Teams, that already automatically qualified for the next European Men's Handball Championship, play against each other in a four team group. The tournament is played at the same time as the qualifying process for the European Championships. The inaugural edition of the men's tournament was in 2020.

Creation

The EHF supported the creation of the event at an EHF meeting in February 2017.

Qualification

Four teams participate in this competition. Qualification depends on how many hosts/co-host there are. For example, if there are three co-hosts, then only the European Men's Handball Championship champions will tak.

Women's competition

After the introduction of the Men's event, the EHF decided to create a Women's EHF [Euro Cup|Women's version], starting in 2022.
