2016 Beach Handball World Championships

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2016 Beach Handball World Championships was a twelve-team tournament in both men's and women's beach handball, held at Budapest, Hungary from 12 to 17 July 2016.[1] It was the seventh edition of the event.

Croatia and Spain took home gold in the men's and women's event, both after defeating Brazil in the final.[2][3]

Format

[edit]

The twelve teams were split into two groups of six teams. After playing a round-robin, the three top ranked team advanced to the main round. Every team kept the points from preliminary round matches against teams who also advance. In the main round every team had three games against the opponents they did not face in the preliminary round. The top four teams advanced to the semifinals. The three bottom ranked team from each preliminary round group were packed into one group. The points won against the teams who were also in this group were valid. Every team played three games and after those round there were placement matches from 7th–12th place.

Matches were played in sets, the team that wins two sets is the winner of a match. When teams were equal in points the head-to-head result was decisive.

Draw

[edit]

The draw was held on 12 May 2016.[4][5] The schedule was released on 16 June 2016.[6]
