Fanni Kenyeres

Career Kenyeres played for several clubs, including Budapest Spartacus SC and Vasas SC before joining Alcoa FKC, where she achieved her biggest successes on club level. In 2002, she failed with the Székesfehérvár-based team in the EHF Cup semifinals yet, but three years later they finally triumphed.

In 2006 Kenyeres also added a Hungarian cup silver to her medal collection. On ...

People From Salgótarján
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility.

In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...

A standard match consists of two periods of 30 minutes, and the team that scores more goals wins. Modern handball is played on a court of , with a goal in the middle of each end. The goals are surrounded by a zone where only the defending goalkeeper is allowed; goals must be scored by throwing the ball from outside the zone or while "diving" into it. The sport is usually played indoors, but outdoor variants exist in the forms of field handball, Czech handball (which were more common in the past) and beach handball.

Body contact is permitted for the def ...
