Chekhovskie Medvedi (Russian: Чеховские Медведи, English: Chekhov Bears) is a professional handball club from Chekhov, Moscow Oblast, Russia. They compete in the Russian Handball Super League and in the SEHA League. After the launching of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the European Handball Federation in February 2022 temporarily suspended the team.[1]
The organization was founded in 2001 on the basis of the disbanded original CSKA Moscow Handball Club.
