Alberta Elite U21 Programs

The purpose of this program is to prove that you have become an elite player. Athletes a part of this program will have the opportunity by ATHF to play internationally, nationally, and/or locally. International play includes the chance to play professionally in countries like Germany, France, Norway, Denmark, etc. Within Canada, ATHF athletes can be among the top players across the country and hold a significant role on the national team.

Upon graduating from this program, we encourage athletes to be leaders and influencers in the Alberta Team Handball League and to choose their own high-level paths: national team, overseas, or club.
