A county allegiance

What a pleasure to host, at the heart of Athletica – the Department’s High-Performance Sports Center – the new edition of the TIBY Val d’Oise. This high-level competition, bringing together the best young national handball teams, has become a benchmark event in Europe and a true springboard to the international stage for every player. This weekend, the TIBY Val d’Oise at Athletica is the must-see gathering for these budding champions!
