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.

FC Barcelona Intersport 2. HC Croatia Osiguranje Zagreb 3. Kadetten Schaffhausen 4. Füchse Berlin 5. Pick Szeged 6. HC Dinamo Minsk Expert Francois-Xavier Houlet says: From my point of view, FC Barcelona is the red-hot favourite in this group. The Catalans have all what it takes to clinch the trophy – the experience, the depth and the quality of the roster and – through the recent signing of Strbik who will pair with Šarić – also the best goalkeeping duo in Europe. Last season´s surprise team Füchse Berlin is no surprise anymore! In their first ever participation in 2011/12, the club from the German capital reached the FINAL4 and this gained a straight ticket through their Bundesliga ranking. The Füchse could be a tough challenger for Barcelona and one of the competition’s outsiders with title chances. Szeged, Schaffhausen and Zagreb will vie for last two tickets to the Last 16 and the Hungarian side should have a slight advantage. Apart from Larholm replacing Máté Lékai the team remained the same and continues its promising development. They can also count on their home support and the fantastic atmosphere the fans create in the “Pick”-cave. Swiss team Schaffhausen made it to the Last 16 in the previous season and they will be aiming for the same feat this time, but Zagreb is likely to be in their way.

  • RUKOMET - Skripta
    RUKOMET - Skripta Rukometna igra je popularna u našoj zemlji i sa njom se bavi veliki broj muške i ženske omladine. Usled relativno jednostavne tehnike, a ipak svestranog uticaja na organizam sportista ( sadrži sve prirodne vidove kretnih aktivnosti kao – trčanja, skokove, bacanja, elemente akrobatike...) naročito je pogodan kao nastavni sadržaj fizičkog vaspitanja. Rukomet je dinamična sportska igra u kojoj su prisutni brojni telesni kontakti igrača, velika brzina odvijanja akcija pri čemu se naizmenično smenjuju faze napada i faze odbrane. Svi učesnici igre naizmenično imaju uloge napadača i i igrača odbrane. Vremensko trajanje utakmice je regulisano na osnovu ukupnog trajanja igre, a ne na osnovu efektivnog vremena trajanja. Aktivnosti igrača se sastoje od raznovrsnih promenjljivih kretanja i različitih manipulacija sa loptom, u nameri da se bacanjem lopte na gol postigne pogodak. Jačina opterećenja nije ravnomerna tokom utakmice, već se smenjuju faze maksimalnih i lakših opterećenja ( talasasti karakter operećenja ), a u pravilima igre je dozvoljeno neogranično vršenje zamene igrača u svakom trenutku igre bez najave sudijama. Osim elementarnih kretnih aktivnosti (trčanja ,skakanja, bacanja...), igrači u fazi odbrane vrše kretanja u odbrambenom stavu. Ovo specifično odbrambeno kretanje se vrši velikom brzinom, a najčešće se prelaze rastojanja od dva , tri i jednog metra i nešto ređe od četiri metra. Igrači rukometa moraju da budu sposobni da vrlo brzo pretrčavaju deonice do dvadeset pet metara. Tokom cele utakmice dominiraju kretne aktivnosti koje se izvode brzim tempom, prema tome kao jedan od bitnih činioca uspeha pojavljuje se sposobnost da se učestalo izvode brza kretanja na kratkim rastojanjima, što je zavisno od anaerobnog kapaciteta igrača. Aktivnosti koje su sadržane u rukometnoj igri su takve da njihovom odgovarajućom primenom mogu da se razvijaju kod sportista pre svega brzina učestalosti pokreta brzina pojedinačnog pokreta , izdržljivost u brzini, eksplozivna snaga gornjih i donjih ekstremiteta i okretnost ( koja je povezana sa koordinacijom).

Robin Walsh was President from the foundation of the organisation at Stormont in 2007 until he stepped down early in 2013 to take up the Presidency of Cricket Ireland. The CWI are immensely proud that one of our number should be recognised thus and doubly so that Robin filled the role with such dignity and commitment. It turned out to be both a tremendously successful year on the pitch and a historic one off it, and we are fortunate that a man with a trained eye and stylish pen was there to witness it all — and share it with us. Throughout his presidency Robin wrote a regular diary which appeared on the Cricket Ireland website but it clearly deserves a larger audience and a permanent place on the growing shelf of Irish cricketing literature. And that’s why you’re reading this now. ‘Mine’s a Treble’ © Robin Walsh May 2014 Published by the Cricket Writers of Ireland Designed and edited by Ger Siggins Photographs by Barry Chambers.
