Today (18 June) marks the first rest day of the 7th AHF Men’s and Women’s Asian Beach Handball Championship which being held at the Tianmu Resort Village in Zhang Jiachan Town, Weihai City, Shandong Province, China from 15-24 June.

The men’s competition is split into two preliminary groups of six teams each with the top two in each going directly through to the semi-final stage and the rest fighting it out for 5-12 place.

Preliminary Group A features Qatar (QAT), Vietnam (VIE), Chinese Taipei (TPE), Afghanistan (AFG), Indonesia (INA) and Philippines (PHI).

Preliminary Group B includes Oman (OMA), Iran (IRI), Thailand (THA), Pakistan (PAK), Japan (JPN) and Saudi Arabia (KSA).

After 18 games across the first three matchdays in the competition the favourites – and title-holders – Qatar, are looking strong in the men’s competition with three perfect 2-0 wins, against Philippines, Indonesia and Afghanistan in Group A, along with Vietnam who have also registered three 2-0 wins in a row in the same group.

 

In Group B, Oman have also registered three perfect victories – against Saudi Arabia, Japan and Pakistan, while Iran have also won three times but needed two shoot-out wins, against Thailand (10:8) and Saudi Arabia (8:7) along with their 2-0 regular time win over Japan.

The women’s competition starts tomorrow (Wednesday 19 June) and sees six teams in one group competing for glory in a round-robin format: China (CHN), Thailand (THA), Vietnam (VIE), Chinese Taipei (TPE), Hong Kong (HKG) and Japan (JPN).

The championships in China serve as a qualifier for both the 2019 ANOC World Beach Games in Qatar and the 2020 IHF Men’s and Women’s Beach Handball Championships to be held in Italy.

The top two teams in both the men’s and women’s competitions will receive a direct ticket to Italy.
