Granollers); 4 EHF-Cups (2 for BM. Granollers, 1 for Teka (when are IHF Cup) and 1 for Alzira); 3 European Supercup (FC Barcelona) and 1 Superglobe (Caja Cantabria)-, as well as the most recent success of the Spanish National Team during the year ‘96 -silver in the Spanish European Championship, bronze in the Atlanta Olympic Games and silver in the Italian European Championship at '98- confirm the thesis that ASOBAL has not only been a witness but also an important impulse towards the best Handball that at present can be seen world-wide.
