Japan 2019: The Best
08 Dec. 2019
The ‘hummel Player of the Match’ award is presented after every match at the 2019 IHF Women’s World Championship in Japan.
So far, there have been 60 awards, ahead of the Main Round and President’s Cup/13-24 Placement Round matches getting underway later today, and IHF.info looks at the full list of winners so far.
It is awarded to the player who wins an online vote out of three nominated players, by fans watching from home or anywhere around the world casting their vote using the new IHF app. For more information on how to vote and use the app, visit HERE.
The award also allows every player who wins it an opportunity to help the world’s vulnerable girls and pass on the joy of handball through the IHF official main sponsor hummel’s CSR programme HAND - 'Handball for A New Destiny'. For more information, visit HERE.
