In late July 2026, Macedonian handball club Eurofarm Pelister announced the start of its 2026/27 season preparations. The first report highlighted the appointment of head coach Branislav Angelovski, who stressed a blend of youth and experience, detailed the expanded coaching staff, and outlined a pre‑season schedule that includes a friendly tournament in Prilep and a match against Iran’s youth national team in Skopje.

A few days later the club’s captain, Philip Kuzmanovski, outlined the team’s ambitions. He pointed to the arrival of Croatian strategist Lino Červar and several new signings as key to improving on the previous season’s runner‑up finish. The squad will train in a pre‑season camp in Slovenia before entering the Macedonian Superliga and the European League, with goals of challenging for the domestic title and achieving a strong European performance.

Together, the updates show Eurofarm Pelister moving from initial coaching changes and youth‑focused training to a broader strategic push, adding experienced management and setting higher competitive targets for the upcoming season.
