Background & Supplement The men's national team, "Comet JAPAN," gained significant experience competing against the world in the Paris 2024 Olympics. On the other hand, the women's national team, "Oribi JAPAN," narrowly missed qualifying, resulting in a regrettable outcome. Both teams are leveraging these experiences to focus on developing young players, strengthening their practical skills through overseas tours, enhancing data analysis, and improving their medical systems, all with the goal of winning medals at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics.

The environment required to compete at the top global level demands substantial financial resources. The Japan Handball Association is therefore seeking broad support from everyone.

Furthermore, donations to our association, as a public interest incorporated foundation, are eligible for donation tax deductions for both income tax and corporate tax.

Future Plans The donated funds will be allocated to the training camps and overseas tour expenses for the national teams. Utilization reports will be provided periodically on the Japan Handball Association's official website and social media. We continue to ask for your support.
