The Paris 2024 Olympic Games are getting closer and the draws are starting to take place. The water polo draw was the first, and new French athletes now know their opponents. For handball, where Les Bleus excel with numerous Olympic titles, the teams qualified for the Games now know their qualifying pools and their future opponents, whom they will face from July 25 to August 11, 2024, at theArena Paris Sud and then in Lille.
From July 25 to August 4, twelve teams per gender will compete in a preliminary round at Porte de Versailles, in a bid to qualify for the knockout phase at Lille's Stade Pierre-Mauroy. The curious and fans of this discipline alike can buy their tickets for the session of their choice where their national team will be playing on the official ticketing site, with tickets still available from 90 euros in Paris!
The pool for the men's team promises to be a tough one, with opening matches against reigning world champions Denmark and handball nation Norway. Let's hope the Bleu(e)s bring home another Olympic title!
