Driving force in Brazilian handball elected to Hall of Fame

Coach and leader Renata Ferreira from São Paulo is a true force who has strengthened the bond between Brazil and Partille World Cup. To honour her work she is now elected to Partille World Cup´s Hall of Fame.
– This means an incredible amount to me, she says. 

Elected to Hall of Fame are people who over the years have made extraordinary contributions to handball, youths and Partille World Cup.
Renata Ferreira is not only a passionate coach, she is a key figure in bringing Brazilian youth handball to the international stage. As a Hall of Fame winner at this year’s Leaders Party, she was being honored for her long-standing commitment and influence within Partille World Cup.
– Partille World Cup is always the highlight of the year, so this means an incredible amount to me, she says proudly as she receives her award.

Since 2006, Ferreira has been present in Gothenburg almost every year. In addition to her role as a coach, she has also acted as an agent and coordinator, making it possible for several teams from São Paulo to participate in the world’s largest youth handball tournament.
– The most rewarding part is being able to provide children, teenagers and coaches with an experience that will stay with them for the rest of their lives, and that can open their minds to a world of possibilities, she says. 

Her work has not only given young players invaluable international experience — it has also built strong relationships between Brazil and the global handball community.
– With her energy, drive, and passion for the sport, Renata Ferreira continues to inspire – both back home in Brazil and here at Partille World Cup, says Fredrik Andersson, general secretary of Partille World Cup.
