Handball is in Germany the second biggest team sport after football. In my home town, the local lower division side Bergische Soldaten der Liebe (BSdL) have come forward to organise a local pre-season tournament under the name of Bergische Handballmeisterschaft (Bergisch Handball Championships).
I was there on Friday evening, the first match day, to speak to the organisers and participating clubs about their preparations and the use of the tournament in their pre-season.
Die wiederbelebte Bergische Handballmeisterschaft wird von Freitag bis Sonntag in der Sporthalle Neuenkamp ausgespielt. Wir waren am Freitagabend mal vor Ort, am Tag der Derbys!
