Metz Handball is a French handball club from Metz, France, founded in 1965 under the name ASPTT Metz. Its English Wikipedia lead credits it with some 50 titles, the all-time record for a French women's team sport. The club has been chaired by Thierry Weizman since 2005, has played consistently in the EHF Champions League and reached the Final4 five times, and won the EHF Champions League trophy in 2026. Its men's team also played in the first league between 1971 and 1983 and has played in Nationale 1, the third division, since 2020. The lead gives no arena or capacity, so this entry records the city, the country, the founding year and the sport, and leaves further history to later sourced work.
