Tor Lian EHF President EHF MEDIA AND COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT Dear Media Representative, Following FC Barcelona’s Men’s EHF Champions League win for a record seventh time last May, the teams in the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12 are now on the long road to the VELUX EHF FINAL4 on Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 May 2012 at the LANXESS arena, Cologne, Germany. Many media representatives from across Europe attended matches last season with over 300 media accredited in Cologne of which just under half were from the written press. The EHF Media and Communications Department are honoured to have you cover our games and are at your disposal at all times. If you should have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us on the details below. JJ Rowland Peter Hofer Andrew McSteen Head of EHF Media and Comms.

The full name of the competition should always be used. VELUX and the three letter abbreviation for the European Handball Federation should always be displayed in capital letters before the name of the competition. Please note: If the season is required, it has to be positioned after “Champions League” e.g. VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12.

In 275 days, on 27 May 2012, the winner of the most important cup in the world of the club handball will be known – after 148 matches in Group Stage, Last 16, Quarter-Finals and the VELUX EHF FINAL4. FC Barcelona Intersport start as defending champions – but the number of top opponents is huge this season. With their new name and new home BM Atletico Madrid are keen to continue their successful tradition, when they were known as BM Ciudad Real. The German sides from Hamburg and Kiel will be strong like the Catalans and like the new Danish champions AG Kobenhavn or traditionally strong teams like MKB Veszprem, MAHB Montpellier or Chekhovskie Medvedi. The first steps for all of them are the 10 matches of the Group Stage. On 28 September the starting whistle will be blown and after the break for EHF EURO 2012 in Serbia the Group Stage continues with the last three rounds on 8 February 2012. By 26 February the 16 participants of the knock-out stage will be known, whilst the Last 16 (14 – 25 March) will also be played in the same form as last season. The four group winners face the four fourth-ranked teams, and the clubs ranked third meet those ranked second. The better ranked teams have the home right in the second leg. The winners of the Last 16 qualify for the Quarter-Finals (18 – 29 April 2012), which is the last step to Cologne. The group winners (if they qualify) again have the home right in the decisive second leg – and group winners cannot face each other before the VELUX EHF FINAL4. The semi-finals will take place in Cologne on 26 May – and one day later the 19th winner of the VELUX EHF Champions League will be known. VELUX EHF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 2011/12 FACTS FC Barcelona Intersport are the current EHF Champions League record holders with seven titles, followed by Atletico Madrid (three titles as BM Ciudad Real) and THW Kiel (two titles). In total, Spanish teams have won the trophy 13 times, and all of the EHF Champions League winners since 2005 are participating this season, however, it is not a team from the Iberian peninsula who are competing this year who have participated the most in the competition though, it is RK Croatia Osiguranje Zagreb. Since the start of the EHF Champions League in 1993 the 20-time Croat champion have only missed it once in the 2001/2002 season and currently start the competition for the 18th time. Behind Zagreb are MKB Veszprem, the 20-time Hungarian champions, who participate for the 17th time in the EHF Champions League ahead of FC Barcelona Intersport and THW Kiel (both 15), MAHB Montpellier (14) and Chekhovskie Medvedi (12). Medvedi, the Russian champions, are the only team to be part of the EHF Champions League for the 12th straight time, again ahead of Veszprem (11) and Montpellier (10 times). In contrast, Füchse Berlin (GER), Bjerringbro-Silkeborg and AG Kobenhavn (both DEN) play in the Group Stage of the VELUX EHF Champions League for the first time. The first 16 matches of this season’s competition have already been played in the three qualification and tournaments and one Wild Card tournament. After 20 teams had qualified directly for the VELUX EHF Champions League, due to the EHF seeding list, IK Savehof, Partizan Belgrade, Metalurg Skopje and Vive Targi Kielce made their way through to the Group Stage as the winners of those tournaments, played in a new play-off format with semi-finals and finals in contrast to the group matches before. So, after 8,880 minutes of regular time played by more than 400 players in the 24 teams coming from 15 countries one team captain will raise the one trophy everyone wants in Cologne in May 2012. VELUX EHF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 2011/12 TEAM OVERVIEW Group A: FC Barcelona Intersport (ESP) The defending champions have been tipped by many VELUX EHF Champions League coaches as big favourites to win the VELUX EHF Champions League again this season, with team captain Laszlo Nagy hoping for a record eighth title too. “It’s easier to get to the top than to remain there,” he said. The Spanish champions can rely on almost the same team from last season in their 15th season of participation in the EHF Champions League. Only Iker Romero has left the club but Spanish internationals Viran Morros (Atletico Madrid) and Mikel Aguirrezabalaga (Reale Ademar León) signed for the Catalans, who hold the record for winning the EHF Champions League the most times. Croatia Osiguranje Zagreb (CRO) For the 20th straight time Zagreb are Croatian champions and for the 18th time (the most out of all the participants in the competition this season) they play in the EHF Champions League. After reaching the Last 16 in the last two years the Croats hope to make the Quarter-Finals this season. The only key player who departed is goalkeeper Gorazd Skof, but experienced Josip Valcic from Gummersbach has joined the club. Ivano Balic is the head of the team, but youngsters like Gojun and Kopljar are emerging as contenders for the leading position. Kadetten Schaffhausen (SUI) Last season the Swiss champions were close to a big sensation, as they were close to eliminating MAHB Montpellier in the Last 16, but lost the second leg. This season coach Petr Hrachovec has to face the fact that three of his top stars left the club; goalkeeper Bjorgvin Gustavsson, top scorer Mait Patrail and experienced wing Jan Filip.

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION – In order to point out certain strategic and tactical principles in handball, it is important to have a thorough knowledge of international tournaments, and to analyse the characteristics of these events. Detailed and accurate professional analyses are needed if we want to become acquainted with the various strategies and to determine the main trends followed and applied by the majority of teams, not only in general but also with regards to counter-attacks and fastbreak systems. Thus we can observe how many goals are scored from counter-attacks and fastbreaks, taking into consideration the total number of attacks.

THW Kiel 2. MKB Veszprém KC 3. BM Atlético Madrid 4. IK Sävehof 5. Celje Pivovarna Laško 6. HCM Constanta Expert Francois-Xavier Houlet says: What a group this is! Kiel, Madrid (formerly known as Ciudad Real) and Celje have won seven of the last nine Champions League titles! Furthermore, Kiel and Madrid are last year#s finalists. And despite many changes in their respective rosters, both “giants” belong to the top favourites. Kiel’s main challenge is the integration of five new players into the team. Especially, new top- shooter Marko Vujin faces the very difficult task to follow the big footsteps that Kim Andersson left. Atlético Madrid had to cope with the departures of, among others, Dinart, Strbik, Chema or Abalo. But after having signed Barrachet, Gojun and Superstar Balić there is no doubt that Madrid will continue to be one of the top teams. Veszprém are for many people the dark horse that could surprise the favourites. With Ugalde, Chema Rodriguez or coach Ortega speaks, the Hungarian champion now plays with a Spanish accent. I believe, this bunch of players can go very far in the competition. Celje, Sävehof and Constanta will likely compete for fourth place in Group B. Celje and Constanta have signed some strong players and can rely on their home crowd support, which is why it will be difficult for Sävehof to repeat last season’s feat when they won the qualification tournament and then finished third place in the group.

We are down to a matter of weeks, twelve to be exact until the 2014/2015 season reaches its spectacular conclusion. But before we head to Cologne, the remaining teams in the competition face their next challenge…the Last 16. The ten rounds of the Group Phase came to an end in February 2015, and with 120 matches now behind them, the group phase survivors stand on the eve of the Last 16. The players of KS Vive Tauron Kielce (POL) were the best of the 24 teams in the previous round; Kielce exited Group D with maximum points after 10 impressive victories. It will be interesting to see if their winning streak remains unbroken as they face Montpellier Agglomeration HB (FRA). Enjoying their 18th season in the Champions League, the ultimate team of this elite competition, FC Barcelona will meet Aalborg Handball. The Danes are hoping to move to the next round; only in their second season in the Champions League, they are hungry and ambitious. The other Danish presence, KIF Kolding Kobenhavn takes on HC Prvo plinarsko drustvo Zagreb of Croatia, who are back in the Last 16 after a two season absence.

  • Füchse Berlin
    Dear Handball Friends, Welcome to the quarter-final stage of the VELUX EHF Champions League. I would like to congratulate all eight teams on making it this far in Europe’s premier men’s club handball competition – it really is quite some achievement! This season we see the traditional powerhouses of men’s handball, including the last two seasons’ champions FC Barcelona Intersport and THW Kiel, joined in the quarter-finals by some new faces. Füchse Berlin and AG Kobenhavn are playing their very first season in the competition and RK Cimos Koper are in the quarter-finals of the VELUX EHF Champions League for the first time in their club’s history. There is a new development too in the quarter-finals, as AG Kobenhavn take on FC Barcelona Intersport, in the Parken football stadium in Copenhagen, Denmark. With 22,000 fans expected, this event looks set to break all spectator records and has already attracted tremendous interest from fans and TV stations around the world. I am sure that the hearts and minds of all players and coaches are firmly set on winning a place in the VELUX EHF FINAL4 in the LANXESS arena, Cologne on 26 and 27 May 2012. They are now just two games away from making this dream a reality. Whatever the results there will be tears, some of joy and some of sadness, but the games will be the very best of the sport we all love. Enjoy watching top-class handball and good luck to all those taking part! Tor Lian EHF President EHF MEDIA AND COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT Dear Media Representative, The teams are now within touching distance of the VELUX EHF FINAL4 which takes place on Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 May 2012 at the LANXESS arena, Cologne, Germany.
