Handball player in the focus of the election
In Schleswig-Holstein, the athlete of the year is chosen, and the dominance of handball is unmistakable! Of five nominees, there are three outstanding national handball players: Johannes Golla, Andreas Wolff and Rune Dahmke. This selection shows how much handball is rooted in this northernmost state.
The German national handball team caused a sensation in the summer of the Olympic Games in Paris when she was in the final. Despite a dramatic defeat against Denmark after a gripping game against France, the silver medalists now have the chance to be honored as athlete of the year. Johannes Golla, captain of the DHB team and top performer at SG Flensburg-Handewitt, and Andreas Wolff, who ensured the necessary support in the goal and is now playing at the THW Kiel, are in the shortlist. Rune Dahmke, also active at the THW Kiel, completes the trio of handball players.
The competition
But the handball players have strong competition! There is no handball player for the athletes of the year, but the 3 × 3 basketball Olympic winner Elisa Mevius, triathlete Julia Bröcker, athlete Adia Budde, surfer Lina Erpenstein and para swimmer Tanja Scholz are available. The vote runs until December 13th, and the winners will be announced on December 18 in a glamorous gala in Neumünster.
The SG Flensburg-Handewitt is also in the race for the teams, in addition to several sailing duos and the football players from Holstein Kiel. The title has always been to Kiel in the past five years, but Flensburg was last successful in 2018. Holstein Kiel was able to break the handball dominance in 2017 and thus remains an exciting challenger.
