The current EHF President Michael Wiederer (AUT) – in office since 2016 – announced in May that he would be aiming for a third term. The position is not being challenged.
He is followed by First Vice-President Predrag Boskovic (MNE) and Vice-President Finances Henrik La Cour (DEN). Both have been in their respective positions since 2016 and both are standing again for election in 2025 – also unchallenged.
Experience remains key also in the EHF’s three technical commissions. The three chairpersons; Bozidar Djurkovic (SRB) of the Competitions Commission, Pedro Sequeira (POR) of the Methods Commission and Gabriella Horvath (HUN) of the Beach Handball Commission, have again announced their candidature.
For Djurkovic, a re-election would mean a third term as chairperson. Horvath has been part of the EXEC since 2016, first as a member and since 2021 as commission chairperson. Sequeira was elected in 2021. No opposing candidate has been nominated for the aforementioned functions.
For the EXEC member positions, six candidates have thrown their hat into the ring; David Barrufet Bofill (ESP), Tjark de Lange (NED), Randi Heggemsnes Gustad (NOR), Franjo Bobinac (SLO), Stefan Lövgren (SWE) and Mesut Cebi (TUR).
