And at every step of their journey, they have had the support of Joma. As the <strong>official technical sponsor of Croatia<\/strong>, the brand has dressed the runners-up in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joma-sport.com\/en_IE\/sport\/handball\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">equipment<\/a> designed to achieve maximum performance, accompanying them on their journey to the top of the championship.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From the group stage until today, the Croatian team has demonstrated their talent, commitment, and fighting spirit, attributes that led them to qualify last Thursday after leaving France with no options. Each match has been <strong>a reflection of the combination of the players&#8217; technical excellence and innovation in the uniforms<\/strong>, designed to offer freedom of movement, breathability, and durability in elite competition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The title of runners-up is a milestone for Croatian handball, consolidating the team as <strong>one of the undisputed powers in this sport<\/strong>. This would not have been possible without their effort and constant work.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For Joma, it is a pride to have been part of this journey in the championship, providing the players with the best technology and reaffirming their commitment to high sports performance. A union that celebrates its tenth anniversary since the national team joined the #JomaTeam in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The #JomaTeam played the World Cup final against Denmark in Oslo, establishing themselves as one of the most successful teams [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":84508,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[119],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 -
