An incredible season of 2010/2011 lies behind us. The very suprising indoor triumph with a victory against the arch-rival UHC in the German Finals was even beaten by the field season. With a huge hustle towards the end of the „normal“ season we were able to qualify for the playoffs on rank 8. The following was a triumph march through hockey’s Cremé de la Cremé. First we were able to kick out the first placed team from Mannheim within two games during the quarter finals before wem et the UHC again in the semi-finals. Meanwhile the self-confidence was big enough to beat them in two games, too. Four huge games were behind us and there was only one game left to play. The final against Uhlenhorst Mülheim. At least 150 fans fund their way to Mannheim, where the final took place, to support our team. In this game we also dominated and so we won 4-1 in an alsmost perfectly played match and got the double. Field and Indoor Champion 2011. You can’t win any more. Everybody who watched the games live could see that there was a great team built in which especially the key players played 100% fort he team.

The season of 2011/12
Another highlight we are proud to announce is that after our first goalkeeper Tim Jessulat won the Indoor World Championship in February, he won the Outdoor European Champioinship as well. We will do our best to support him, so he can step on the podest at the olympic games in London, too.

The Team:

Second goaly Christoph Noack advanced a lot at Tim’s side.
David Wünschmann a very good keeper. His only problem: Tim is better.
Defense:
Phillip, Frosch, Fröschle. Banker from the Haspa and ultimate fighter, just like his little brother.
Konner Rentrop, the interceptor. Between left and genius he played an overwhelming season.
Patrick, Paddy, Müller, the neutral swiss player with an enourmous talent.
Matthias, Matze, Knüpfer, has a great technique. Born in Stuttgart, he earned his place in the team.
Midfield:
Buddy Biederlack as the man that holds the strings, superior in offense and defense.
Alessio Ress, the artist who has to bring a compass for his opponents, so they know where to go.
Julian Hofmann-Jeckel, known for his enormous running endurance and the master of 3D hockey
Stefan, Stevie, Witte, the perfect athlete. Set new patterns for the beeptest.
Offense:
Jojo Fröschle as center-defender and cornercanon topscorer in 2011.
Daniel von Drachenfels, faster than his own shadow and with clearly the best „aggi“ of all.
Tim Witthaus, the head of the second offense, with suprising moments as well in offense as in defense.
