(Benjamin Edwards at the 2025 World Championships in Norway)
Benjamin Edwards is just 18 years old, but has already played for the the U.S. Men’s national team at the Youth, Junior and Senior levels. During the 2025 World Championships in Norway I sat down with Benji to talk about his handball journey to date and plans for the future..
Here are some of the topics we discussed:
- Playing for top club, Veszprem in a pre-season tourney
- Getting started with handball
- His connection to the U.S.
- Moving to the Veszprem Academy at age 15
- Potentially getting “loaned” to another club
- Playing in Hungary’s 2nd division
- How USA national teams develop a team spirit
- Prospects for the U.S. at the 2028 Olympics and beyond
