Norwegian Women's Handball - World Champions.
Gro Hammerseng leads Norway to Gold victory in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
The Norway women's national handball team is the national team of Norway. It is governed by the Norwegian Handball Federation and takes part in international handball competitions.
History:
Norway has been among the world elite in women's handball since the break-through at the 1986 World Championship where the team won a bronze medal. Since then, Norway has won four European Championships, and one World Championship. Norway has also participated in three final matches of the Summer Olympics, and won gold in Beijing 2008.[1] Norway is the most successful team in the European Championships, having won four golds, two silvers, and one bronze out of eight tournaments. The only time Norway finished outside of the top three was at the 2000 European Championship.
Since 1994 the team has been coached by former player Marit Breivik. She has led the team to six gold medals. Their usual tactics include a strong 6-0 defense and frequent fast breaks on offense.
