Every season tells its own story. Last season – and there is no doubt about it – was disappointing for us. Nevertheless: The story certainly has an exciting plot.

Anybody wanting to look back at the 2016/17 season can see that in detail on our new website. That is why there is the Season heading on the left navigation bar at the top.

The media wanted to know if Malik Tillman had thought back in September and the team’s indifferent start to the season that they would go into the winter break in third place with 29 points from 15 games.
