Handball has been one of the most followed sports in Europe and has all the potential to generate similar responses in India too.

We at Shatvik Corporaion are pleased to bag the Rajasthan Franchise of the Premier Handball League, titled Rajasthan Wolverines and believe that with the onset of PHL, India shall see a handball revolution in times to come.

The addition of Rajasthan Wolverines will bolster the PHL’s mission of revolutionising handball in the country and delivering a never-seen-before experience not just to the players, coaches and stakeholders but also to the fans with this exciting tournament that is set to kick-off next year.
