HER PLAYGROUND: Inspired by Breast Cancer Awareness Month, an examination of the links with handball and breast injuries in sport
October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a global health campaign held annually with the goal of supporting those diagnosed with the disease, educating, raising awareness and encouraging regular screening. With over two million people around the world diagnosed with breast cancer each year, the disease is present in the handball community — occasionally prominently, through well-known figures, but also quietly within the many teams and federations operating around the world.
