The IHF Trophy Africa Zone VI and VII combined tournament in Lusaka, Zambia finished last weekend with both the junior and youth Madagascar and Zambia teams sharing the glory in their respective tournaments.

 

In the youth competition for those born on, or after, January 1, 2000, hosts Zambia (ZAM) came from being three goals down at half-time to beat Madagascar (MAD) 26:23 (12:15). Zambia reached the final after squeezing past Zimbabwe (ZIM) in a nervous semi-final which had seen the sides deadlocked at the break, 13:13 before the home team did enough to come away with an eventual six-goal victory. Zimbabwe won the bronze medal, easily beating South Africa (RSA), 41:14.

 

For those born on, or after, January 1, 1998, the junior competition final saw Madagascar, who had won all their previous games, get some revenge as they beat Zambia 34:21 (17:8) in a one-sided final. There was also revenge in the bronze-medal match as South Africa beat Zimbabwe 37:33, despite being two goals down at the break (18:16).

 

The Zambian youth team and Madagascar junior team will now advance to the IHF Trophy - Africa Continental Phase to be held on the continent later in 2018.
