German Handball Championship 1949 - Interzone Championship

The German handball championship in 1950 was the first final round of the German championship in indoor handball for men organized by the DHB . It was played in a final tournament on February 17 and 18, 1950 in front of 6,000 spectators in the hall at the radio tower on the exhibition grounds in Berlin .

The SV Police Hamburg remained the only team without loss points on the two days of the tournament and thus became the first official German indoor handball champion .

At the previous interzonal tournament in Münster in 1949 , the title "German Master" was also awarded, but this title is not officially recognized by the DHB, which was founded in 1949, nor is the title at the open championships of the British Zone in Bremen in 1948 . Before 1948 there were only championships in field handball , the older version of the sport.

The master teams of the four regional associations North (SV Police Hamburg), West ( RSV Mülheim ), Southwest ( Sportgemeinde Haßloch ) and South ( PSV Grünweiß Frankfurt ) as well as the champions of the State / Regional Association Berlin ( Berliner SV 1892 ) played in a round-robin tournament “everyone against everyone “the German championship. The leader in terms of points in the final table was the German champion.

The playing time was 2 × 20 minutes.

Tournament course

Decisive for the success of the SV Police Hamburg was the outstanding throwing power of the best player Otto Maychrzak , who was the most successful goalscorer of the tournament. While the police club was able to build on its pre-war success in field handball, the winner of the zone championship from the previous year was disappointing: RSV Mülheim only scored one point against Haßloch and was otherwise clearly defeated by its opponents.

The Hamburgers themselves attributed their tournament success to their stability over both game days and to the adoption of the "Swedish" system; What was meant by this was the straight, fast game, aimed at ball control and efficient exploitation of chances, which in Swedish indoor handball had been specially developed for the other playground compared to the large field.
