ZAGREB , Jan 2: Kuwait national handball team is nearing the conclusion of its international preparation phase as it readies itself for participation in the 21st Asian Championship for men’s teams, also serving as the “2025 World Cup Qualifiers.” This significant event is scheduled to take place in the Kingdom of Bahrain from January 11 to 25, where our team will compete in the first group alongside Qatar, Oman, and China Taipei.
