With less than 200 days to go to the start of the London 2012 Games, there is an opportunity to watch one of the most exciting Olympic sports at Loughborough University on 22 March.
The Great Britain women's handball team will be visiting the University to play Poland in a qualifier for the 2012 European Championships in the Sir David Wallace Sports Hall.
With the 2012 Games just around the corner, this is a great opportunity to see aspiring Olympians competing in one of the fastest growing sports in the UK.
Great Britain and Poland have both lost their first two matches against former World Champions Russia and Montenegro, so both will be keen to bounce back with two victories to keep their hopes of reaching the finals of the European Championships alive.
The home fixture will also provide Team GB with the opportunity to build a head start before they travel to Poland for the return leg just a few days later
