This July is handball season in Porto with the kick off of the 21st edition of the regional competition of beach handball at Estádio de Praia.

This event is organised by the Handball Association of Porto, and the "And'Praia" gathers circa 1.200 athletes to the sports facilities, set next to the Edifício Transparente, between 4 and 28 July.

And'Praia includes four rounds, one each week of the month, with teams competing from Thursday till Sunday, in three age groups - under 15, Under 18 and Masters.

Team classification results enter the score for the regional Beach Handball tournament and also for the European circuit.

Every Sunday, though, there is the Festand's, which will allow children from clubs of the city of Porto, aged between 7 and 11, to try out the sporting discipline and pass and bounce or roll a ball while having fun in the sand.
