The HSG Handball FrankfurtRheinMain was a handball community that played in the 2nd Bundesliga South from 2009 to 2011 . The HSG was a merger of the license departments of SG Wallau and TSG Münster , in cooperation with various handball clubs in the Rhine-Main region . The team, newly formed for the 2009/10 season - exclusively for the professional sector - played its home games in the district sports hall of the Main-Taunus district in Kriftel . The handball FrankfurtRheinMain Spielbetriebs-GmbH was responsible for the economic administration .
From the 2009/10 season, the joint team of the two partner clubs ran under the name HSG FrankfurtRheinMain with the license of TSG Münster. In 2011 the HSG waived a license application for the new single-track 2nd handball Bundesliga and the two clubs played under their previous names again: SG Wallau in fourth class in the Oberliga Hessen , TSG Münster in the 3rd division .
Handball initiative
The HSG was founded by the handball initiative FrankfurtRheinMain initiated by TSG Münster in 2008 . The aim of the initiative was and is to establish high-class Bundesliga handball in the region and especially in the metropolis of Frankfurt am Main and to create corresponding professional structures. To achieve this goal, the initiative relied on a network of partner associations, sponsors and public figures as well as consistent youth work. The founding of a handball community made up of long-time local rivals TSG Münster and SG Wallau was the temporary high point of this commitment.
Partner clubs
- As the successor to SG Wallau / Massenheim, SG Wallau can look back on a successful past. At the beginning of the 90s, the SG was one of the top teams in German handball. The “Ländches Team” won the German Championship and the IHF Cup for the first time in 1992 . A year later he won the double, which at least in the cup competition was followed by the title defense. After the license withdrawal for financial reasons in 2005, the team was able to re-establish itself in the 2nd Bundesliga South and finally joined the handball initiative of local rivals TSG Münster in 2009.
- With TSG Münster, another club with a great regional tradition is part and initiator of the HSG FrankfurtRheinMain. The greatest success of the Münsterers from the Kelkheim district in 2005 was their promotion to the 2nd handball league. With a sixth place in the table in the 2008/09 season, TSG achieved their best placement there, underscoring the club's ambitions at the time.
Cooperation partner
In addition, the FrankfurtRheinMain handball initiative includes 44 other handball clubs, which are intended to support and promote the goals of the initiative. These are in detail:
