KUWAIT CITY, Dec 12: The Kuwait handball team is continuing its rigorous training camp in Croatia as part of its preparations for the upcoming World Cup, which will take place in Croatia, Denmark, and Norway next January. As part of this preparation, the team will play two friendly matches against the Tunisian national team.

Under the guidance of Algerian head coach Said Hijazi, the technical staff has focused on improving the players' physical fitness and ensuring they are ready to compete at a high level in Group Three, which includes Qatar, Austria, and France.

Faisal Saywan, the director of national teams, emphasized that the team is following the set preparation plan, which has been carefully designed by the technical and administrative staff. He highlighted the ongoing competition among players for a starting position, both in defense and offense.

"We have a group of talented players whom we trust to take on responsibility and deliver the best performance possible," Saywan said. "While we are up against strong teams with significant field experience, the Blue team is determined to represent Kuwait's handball with pride and perform at its best."
