  • We are very happy with the final effects of the tournament despite we had two unserious cancelations from Dubai (Al Shabab) and Tunisia (Afrikans) only a week before the tournament. Tradition of playing tournament in wonderful enviroment of Ohrid Lake continues. We had interesting matches here. Our goal is to finish with the project of constructing “handball stadium” and hopefully we will make it in upcoming years – said STRUGA 2016 director Sale Srbinovski for Handball-Planet.com.
