The Finnish men's national handball team is the national men's handball team of Finland and is controlled by the Finnish Handball Association. Finland has participated in the finals of an international prestigious tournament just once, which happened at the 1958 World Men's Handball Championship in East Germany.[3] There was no qualification at all for the competition in question.[4] In addition, the Finnish national team participated in the 1955 final tournament of handball played outdoors with 11-man teams.[5]
