Romanian women's handball preseason 2026

Overview

In early August 2026, after preseason camps and friendly tournaments, CSM Iași and CS Minaur Baia Mare continued to shape their women's handball squads. Minaur's women played their first summer friendly against Gloria Bistrița, losing 27‑32, while Iași proceeded with its training program in Vatra Dornei.

The broader Romanian women's handball scene saw Rapid București loan seven players to newly promoted Știința București, with Rapid covering salaries. Former national coach Gheorghe Tadici criticised the arrangement as “abnormal”, highlighting debate over player movement ahead of the league season.

Other sporting news from the clubs included Minaur’s men’s football team advancing to the third round of the Romanian Cup and a high‑profile rugby derby in Baia Mare, underscoring the clubs’ multi‑sport involvement.

Both women's teams remain focused on achieving top‑10 league finishes as the 2026‑27 season approaches.
