Career

Andrej Sinjak started playing handball at SKA Minsk in his hometown. There he made his debut under coach Yuri Shevtsov in 1992 in the first Belarusian league. In the same year he moved into the final of the EHF Cup with Minsk , but lost to SG Wallau / Massenheim . In 1996 he followed the call of his former coach Schewzow, who now coached the German club TBV Lemgo , and moved to the 1st handball league . With Lemgo he won the German championship , the DHB-Pokal and the DHB-Supercup in 1997 and again the DHB-Supercup in 1999. When coach Schewzow left the club in 2001, Sinjak also said goodbye and went to the relegated TuS N-Lübbecke . In the 2001/02 season Lübbecke rose again immediately, whereupon Sinjak went to HSV Hamburg . With the Elbe cities, he made it to the final of the DHB Cup in 2004 and won the DHB Supercup, but was mostly only the second choice in his position behind Guillaume Gille . In 2005 he followed the call of his former coach Schewzow, this time to the promoted SG Kronau / Östringen . Here, too, he made it to the final of the DHB Cup in 2006 and 2007, but was injured most of the time and ultimately only third choice behind Oleg Velyky and Michael Haaß . In 2007 he switched to the newcomer TUSEM Essen , where he suffered a shoulder dislocation during training at the beginning of the season and was therefore out for a longer period of time. On October 10, 2008, TUSEM Essen announced the termination of the contract with Sinjak, who expressed the wish to be closer to his family living in the Mannheim area again. After he played for the second division Ahlener SG in the 2008/09 season, he was under contract with TSG Haßloch from 2009 , first as a player, then later as a coach. In 2013 he took over the coaching position at the third division TVG Großsachsen , but was dismissed in January 2014 as a reaction to the poor performance of the TVG.

Andrej Sinjak has played 93 international matches for the Belarusian men's national handball team . At the 1995 World Cup he finished 9th with Belarus, and 8th at the 1994 European Championships .
