Regarding handball, the Bosnia and Herzegovina men's national team has commenced preparations for the 2028 European Championship qualifiers in Group 5. Under coach Damir Doborac, the squad began training in Sarajevo to prepare for matches against Slovenia, the Czech Republic, and Israel. The team initially faced roster challenges due to injuries at the right back position, with only Faris Čolaković available among five originally planned players.

Following an away match against Slovenia, where the team suffered a 28:38 loss, players Ibrahim Haseljić and Danijel Stijović noted a transition toward a younger, faster style of play. The team is now preparing to host the Czech Republic at the Mejdan arena in Tuzla.
