Court of Handball issues decision in Alisa Petriv case

After a careful evaluation of the incident, the Court of Handball found that the action was severely reckless and extremely dangerous.

Due to the unsportsmanlike conduct, the Court of Handball decided that Alisa Petriv is suspended from the participation in EHF National Team Competitions for three (3) matches.

The player is therefore not entitled to participate in the next EHF European Championship Women 2024 Qualifiers match to be played on 7 April 2024 against Slovakia, and the subsequent matches of the Ukrainian national team.

An appeal may be filed with the EHF Court of Appeal within seven (7) days but does not have a suspensive effect on the present decision.
