rs1tv VIDEO: The Bergisch Handball Championships in Remscheid!

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!
