The Czech Handball Association has announced that the country’s health authorities have banned mass events such as sports games.

The Czech domestic handball league has been put on hold and players are not allowed to train.

This has prompted the European Handball Federation (EHF) to postpone the games between the Faroes and the Czech Republic along with other EURO 2020 qualifying games.
