Women in Handball: Gabriela Müller, Mónica Ospina and Johana Arevalo. Voices of protagonists who inspire and delight us with their talent inside and outside the 40×20.
Handball is a sport that has grown remarkably in the Americas thanks to the dedication of many women who every day leave their mark on and off the court.
Among them are figures who, from different roles and countries, have contributed to the development and visibility of this sport.
Unlimited projection
In this month of March, Gabriela Müller, player of the Chilean national team, spoke about the meaning of 8M:
“For me, it’s a day to recognize all that women have accomplished over time.
More than a celebration, I feel that it is a moment to reflect, thank, highlight the strength and value the contribution of women in different fields”.
Her sisters are her women of reference. “I’ve always seen them as an example of hard work and getting ahead.”
“Each one has their own way of dealing with things, but in common they have in common that they are very strong and are always there when you need them.”
“For me they have been super important, because many times they have not only been sisters, but also friends and support in different stages of my life.”
“From them I admire very much how they have been building their path and the way they face the day-to-day challenges.”
If you had to describe the woman in one word, what would it be? “Strength.”Müller closed.
Colombian leader
Monica Ospina is coach of the Colombian Junior Women’s National Team, and she also gave us her opinion and her experience of 8M.
A Guatemalan woman with a strong foothold
Lastly, Johana Arevalo, coach of the Guatemalan youth and junior women’s national teams, gave us her testimony regarding 8M.
“It is a day where we should celebrate our struggles and achievements, and be proud of ourselves.”
“My mother, Delia Rosa Perez, is my reference, she is a great woman in all the best for my life.”
In closing, if I had to describe the woman in one word, what would it be: “Brave.”.
Each of these women are examples of leadership, talent and commitment. Through their work and trajectory, they represent the growth of women’s handball in the region.
