Report

The Men’s Challenge Trophy was the European Handball Federations competition for emerging Nations. Having competed with club sides & countries like Greenland in the mid-1990s, Ireland entered this competition for the first time in 1999.

In Ireland’s fourth time entering the competition in 2005, they lost all their matches for the third time in a row, although this time they only lost 24-21 to Scotland in their final group game, and 23-20 to Malta in the 5th-6th place match. Malta had previously beaten England.

Moldova won the Tournament for the second time in a row, again defeating Azerbaijan in the Final, although this encounter was closer (29-27). Scotland defeated England 24-18 to take bronze.

About

Olympic Handball, sometimes called Team Handball or European Handball, is a team sport similar to Indoor Soccer or Futsal, except hands are used rather than feet.

The object of the sport is to pass the ball using only the hands in order to get into a semi-circle around the opposing teams goal, where a shot may be taken. Each score counts as one goal, and the court is the exact same as a Futsal court indeed Futsal was invented as an Indoor version of Soccer, using the Olympic Handball court.

The sport was invented in Germany & Northern Europe at the end of the 19th Century & beginning of the 20th Century.

Report

In Ireland’s second time entering the competition in 2001, they found the task even harder than in 1999, with newly independent countries like Estonia & Latvia, where the sport has been played for decades, dominating.

Ireland and Malta (the only team they beat in 1999) were outclassed by the more established emerging nations, and again met in the last placement match, where this tome Malta won 32-21, leaving Ireland with a record of 5 losses from 5 matches.

Report

The 1992 Carlsberg Irish Ice Hockey League featured the Dublin flyers for the first time, who along with the Coleraine Jets were the only teams not based at the Dundonald Olympic Ice Rink. Fuel Services Oilers were the defending champions, and all of the Northern Ireland teams could boast semi-pro Canadian players on their roster. The Dublin Flyers had a very fit 55-year-old Japanese Businessman to call upon for experience, while all the other players in the Dublin team learnt what they could from watching TV.

The flyers had done badly in a few friendlies with Northern teams the previous season and not much was expected of them but were 6-1 up in the first period against the Belfast Panthers in their first match before the Panthers knew what hit them, and drew with Fuel Services Oilers, the defending champions, in their second match.
