The European Handball Federation has published a new hygiene concept for the 2021/22 season.

The basis for the concept is the introduction of a ‘vaccinated, recovered, tested’ rule. If the home club can ensure all staff, media and spectators are either vaccinated, recovered or tested, then no zoning will be necessary, and the arena can be prepared as normal. If that is not the case, then clubs must set-up a red zone for players, staff and officials.

As was the case last term, the concept will be adapted regularly depending on the development of the health situation and, should any locally or nationally introduced measures become stricter than those outlined in the concept, then these will take precedence.
