Egypt’s Women’s Youth Handball team has triumphed at the African Championship for the first time in its history. This is reported by MENA, a partner of TV BRICS. The tournament, which concluded earlier this month, saw the Egyptian squad emerge triumphant after a series of competitive matches where they defeated their opponent with a score of 25-22. Reaching the final required a victory in the semi-final round, where they prevailed with a score of 26-25.
The victory automatically qualifies the team for the upcoming World Championship, providing a platform to showcase their talent on a global stage. According to the source, despite a legacy of international achievements at various levels of the sport, this marks the first time an Egyptian team has conquered the African Championship in this specific age category, securing their official qualification for the World Championship.
Meanwhile, the UAE National Modern Rowing team secured two medals at the Asian Rowing Beach Sprint Finals in Zhoushan, China. Shamsah Al-Shariani and Fatima Khalaf won silver in the U19 women’s doubles, while Hamad Al-Matroushi and Khamis Ghanem claimed bronze in the elite men’s doubles category, marking a successful outing for Emirati rowing on the Asian stage. This is reported by WAM, a partner of TV BRICS.
In turn, China’s national women’s hockey team overpowered India with a 4-1 victory in Hangzhou to secure their third Asia Cup title – a first since 2009 – and qualification for the 2026 Women’s FIH Hockey World Cup, as reported by Xinhua News Agency, a partner of TV BRICS.
