Zambia and Madagascar success in Lusaka

Hosts Zambia (ZAM) alongside Botswana (BOT), Lesotho (LES), Madagascar (MAD), Malawi (MAW), Mozambique (MOZ), South Africa (RSA), Seychelles (SEY), Swaziland (SWZ) and Zimbabwe (ZIM) have all been battling it out over the past week at the CAHB Africa IHF Women’s Trophy Zone VI junior and youth tournaments in Lusaka, Zambia, which finished on Sunday (16 June).

In the youth competition (Under 17, born in 2002 and younger) Zambia emerged victorious after beating Zimbabwe (30:15) and Swaziland (51:8) in the group stages, Madagascar in the semi-finals (25:21) and Mozambique in the final 30:21.

Over in the junior competition (U19, born in 2000 and younger) Madagascar’s older team were able to go all the way, beating Zimbabwe (34:23), Botswana (48:1) and Swaziland (42:11) in the group stages and then Zimbabwe again, in the semi-final (30:21). The final saw tight first half against host nation Zambia, but the Madagascans pushed ahead in the second period, to win 31:25 (15:14).

Both Zambia’s youth and Madagascar’s junior side now go through to the CAHB Africa IHF Women’s Trophy – Continental Phase to be held later this year.
