As the Easter celebrations approach, IHF President Dr Hassan Moustafa, on behalf of the International Handball Federation and the entire handball family, wishes to extend his warmest and most heartfelt greetings to all those around the world who are marking this special occasion.

Easter is a time of renewal and reflection, a moment to pause, to appreciate the bonds that unite us, and to look forward with hope and optimism. In a world that continues to face many challenges, the values that Easter embodies - peace, solidarity, compassion and new beginnings - are values that sport, and handball in particular, has always sought to champion.

Our sport brings together 211 member federations, millions of players, coaches, referees and fans from every corner of the globe, representing the full diversity of humanity. It is at moments like these that we are reminded of what unites us, both on and off the court.

May this Easter be a time of joy and togetherness for you and your loved ones. May it bring peace, good health and happiness to all members of our global handball family, wherever you may be.
