There is no doubt that the French team and its new coach Sébastien Gardillou dream of meeting again on December 15 in the Wiener Stadthalle in Vienna, scene of the final of the 16e edition of the European women's handball championship.

To carry out this mission, Sébastien Gardillou, former assistant to the emblematic Olivier Krumbholz, relied on 15 Olympic vice-champions this summer in Paris. Find the complete program for the Bleues preliminary round.
