Handball at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Men's qualification
The men's qualification for the Olympic handball tournament occurred between January 2023 and March 2024,[2] assigning quota places to the twelve squads for the Games: the hosts, the world champion, four continental events winners (Africa, Europe, Asia and Oceania, and the Americas), and six teams from the IHF World Olympic qualifying tournaments, respectively.[3] Summary
Legend
Host countryWorld ChampionshipThe world champion directly qualified for Olympics. Since host nation France took the silver medal, the next six best placed teams (teams ranked 3–8) were eligible to play at the Olympic Qualification Tournaments. If any team subsequently qualified directly for Olympics through their continental event, the list would be shifted to the ninth place (or thereafter).
Continental qualificationEuropeDue to the fact that the European Championship final was contested between France and Denmark, two teams who had already qualified for the Olympic tournament (France as hosts, and Denmark as World Champions), the winner of the third-place match between Sweden and Germany secured the European Olympic berth. In addition, Portugal and Austria, the two best-placed teams not already qualified for Olympics or the Olympic Qualification Tournaments (via the 2023 World Championship), were eligible to play at the Olympic Qualification Tournaments.
AmericasThe winner of the Pan American Games handball tournament directly qualified for the Olympics. The Olympic Qualification Tournaments berth was given to the Pan American Games handball tournament runner-up.
