Dear Handball Friends,

Welcome to the Last 16 of the VELUX EHF Champions League. Since September 2011, 120 games of the Group Phase have

been played, with many games going down to the last seconds to decide who would qualify through to this, the knock-out

stage. It is without doubt that all the teams here are here on merit and now find themselves sitting at the top table of

European men’s club handball.

Congratulations to the coaches, players, club staff and fans of FC Barcelona Intersport, Atletico Madrid, HSV Hamburg,

THW Kiel, RK Osiguranje Zagreb, MKB Veszprem, RK Cimos Koper, AG Kobenhavn, IK Sävehof, Vive Targi Kielce, Metalurg

Skopje, Reale Ademar Leon, Kadetten Schaffhausen, Füchse Berlin, Orlen Wisla Plock and Montpellier MAHB.

The teams here at this stage are now only six games away from being crowned ‘Kings of Europe’ and the wide spread of

European representation – 11 different countries – is the most ever since the new competition format of the Last 16 was

introduced.

Extra-special congratulations must go to Sweden and FYR Macedonia who both have club teams at this stage for this first

time, further underlining and highlighting the European Handball Federation (EHF) commitment to developing and

spreading the game across all four corners of Europe.

Another example of the EHF expanding and developing can be seen by the VELUX Group – title sponsors of the VELUX EHF

Champions League – renewing their deal with us until 2016, less than half way through the original deal. This deal ensures

the continued growth of the league and is further evidence that the competition goes from strength-to-strength.

In fact, the draw for the Last 16 took place at the VELUX Group corporate headquarters in Horsholm, Denmark and live

online for those across the world. The draw has ensured some fantastic match-ups ahead such as the all-German tie

between Hamburg and Berlin, plus the near-neighbours of Sävehof and Kobenhavn facing each other.

Whoever qualifies from the Last 16 deserves their place in the Quarter-Finals in April and lovers of the game the world

over, as well as those of us lucky enough to be inside the arenas watching the games in person, can be sure of seeing

some fine examples of the beautiful sport we all love – handball.

The VELUX EHF FINAL4 in Cologne, Germany on the weekend of 26 and 27 May 2012 is within sight now, but only four teams

can qualify for this spectacular handball event and the Last 16 is yet another test for those teams who are targeting the

coveted trophy.

I hope you enjoy watching some of the world’s very best club handball!

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.

Many media representatives from across Europe have attended matches this season and the coverage

of the VELUX EHF Champions League is going from strength-to-strength with more territories

reporting on, and showing live, the very best club handball in the world.

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.

Regards,

JJ Rowland

Head of EHF Media and Communications.

Official name of the VELUX EHF Champions League

The official name of the competition is: VELUX EHF Champions League. 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.

The wording “Champions League” should always be written with a capital letter at the beginning of

each word, i.e. Champions League. The remaining letters should be in lower case. The word Champions

does not have an apostrophe after the ‘s’.

The VELUX EHF FINAL4 Countdown

The clock is ticking: the threshold of 100 days to go until the throw-off of the VELUX EHF FINAL4 has

already come and gone. Already more than 17,000 fans have booked their seats for the 2011/12 VELUX

EHF Champions League season highlight on 26 and 27 May in the LANXESS arena, Cologne. 2000

further tickets are reserved for the four participating teams.

The remaining tickets are available via the ticket hotline +49 221 280 288 and at www.ehfFINAL4.com.

In addition to peak sporting performances, ticket holders can also look forward to other highlights

during the event. A notable coup was landed in terms of entertainment as the legendary Swedish rock

band EUROPE will be rocking the VELUX EHF FINAL4. The performance from them will be one of the

highlights of a weekend of sporting excellence. Their top-selling single ‘The Final Countdown’ forms

part of almost every international sports event. Fans can look forward to hearing the band and their

hits before the final, during the winners’ ceremony as well as during the official Players’ Night on

Sunday.

“We are very enthusiastic about bringing EUROPE live to the LANXESS arena. Our aim is to rock the

crowd and to present the world with a spectacular mix of entertainment and top-class handball,” said

Peter Vargo, Managing Director of EHF Marketing GmbH.

Charity partner Deutsche Krebshilfe

EHF Marketing GmbH has also announced a new partnership with Deutsche Krebshilfe (German Cancer

Help), which is to be the new charity partner of the VELUX EHF FINAL4. The partnership will see the

organisation of a VELUX EHF FINAL4 Charity Golf Tournament – powered by adidas - on Friday 25 May

2012 in Cologne.

Keen golfers will be able to buy tickets for the chance to play with Stefan Lövgren, the VELUX EHF

FINAL4 Ambassador, and many more celebrities. EHFM expects to donate around €30,000 to Deutsche

Krebshilfe and the fight against cancer.

"Sports events such as the VELUX EHF FINAL4 with nearly 40,000 enthusiastic visitors over a

weekend give Deutsche Krebshilfe the chance to reach a young audience with our prevention

message. In addition, proceeds from a share of ticket sales, charity auction and golf tournament will

help us to improve cancer care,” said Gerd Nettekoven, General Manager of Deutsche Krebshilfe.

LANXESS arena – at the centre of European Handball

With the decision that the VELUX EHF FINAL4 will remain in Cologne until at least 2014, the foundation

stone has been laid for the further development of the event. And for this, the LANXESS arena

provides the best infrastructure and facilities. The engagement of a top international act such as

EUROPE is a sign too of the direction the EHF’s flagship club event is taking.

“The future-oriented partnership up until 2014 allows us, together with the European Handball

Federation, to develop the VELUX EHF FINAL4 to new heights. The aim for the next three years is to

set new standards in indoor sports globally. The LANXESS arena is at the centre of European

handball,” said Stefan Löcher, CEO of ARENA Management GmbH.

About the VELUX EHF FINAL4

The VELUX EHF FINAL4 is the culmination of the European club handball season. The two-day event

sees four matches in one venue to decide the winners of the VELUX EHF Champions League title.

Introduced in the 2009/10 season and to be played until at least 2014 in the LANXESS arena, Cologne,

the decision to create a new format for the final phase of the VELUX EHF Champions League was seen

as crucial for the growth of handball across Europe. The aim was to create a flagship event, one that

could compete on the international sports market and make the Europe’s leading club competition

even more attractive to fans, partners and sponsors.

The success of the first two editions of the VELUX EHF FINAL4 showed that this new format was the

right strategy. It has set new standards in organisation and entertainment: it is not just four games

played over two days but a true entertainment event. The engagement of a top international act such

as EUROPE is a sign too of the direction the event is taking.

Almost 20,000 people from 30 countries will travel to Cologne in May 2012 for the third edition of the

event. In 2011, tickets were sold out weeks before the four participating teams were known, and the

total number of 19,750 spectators was a new record in European club competitions. This year, the

organisers are facing even an increase in ticket sales.

Summary - VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12 Group Phase

Since September 2011, 120 games of the Group Phase have been played – and now 16 of 24 teams of

the VELUX EHF Champions League have made their way to the knock-out stage – the Last 16.

All four groups in the Group Phase were close and full of tension – proving again that the VELUX EHF

Champions League is the leading club handball competition in the world.

On Tuesday 28 February EHF President Tor Lian and EHF Secretary General Michael Wiederer drew the

matches for the Last 16 at the VELUX Group headquarters in Horsholm, Denmark. The first leg of the

Last 16 will be played 14-18 March 2012, whilst the second leg matches will take place from 21-25

March 2012.

The Last 16 is then followed by the Quarter-Finals in April and the spectacular finish with the VELUX

EHF FINAL4 in Cologne (26-27 May), which will be attended by 40,000 spectators in the LANXESS

arena.

24 teams from 15 European nations started the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12 Group Phase at

the end of September 2011 with some surprises and sensations after 10 rounds and 120 matches.

Participants of the VELUX EHF FINAL4 2009/10, Russian Champions Chekhovskie Medvedi, were

eliminated in the so-called ‘Group of Death’ (Group B), French league runners-up Chambery Savoie

were eliminated from Group A, whilst one of the top contenders for the VELUX EHF Champions League

2011/12 title, MAHB Montpellier, finished only fourth in Group D.

In contrast to these shocks, two of the four teams from the Qualifying Tournaments made their way to

the Last 16; Wild Card Tournament winners Vive Targi Kielce (Poland) and Qualifying Tournament Group

2 winners IK Sävehof (Sweden). Also, two debutants are among those to reach the Last 16 with AG

Kobenhavn (Denmark) and Füchse Berlin (Germany) battling it out for honours.

German side HSV Hamburg were the first team to qualify for the Last 16 and were also the first to win

their group. In the end the German champions were the only unbeaten team in the VELUX EHF

Champions League Group Phase, finishing with 19 out of a 20 possible points.

Defending VELUX EHF Champions League champions FC Barcelona Intersport (formerly FC Barcelona

Borges), their Spanish counterparts Atletico Madrid (former BM Ciudad Real) and VELUX EHF

Champions League 2010 winners THW Kiel lost only one of their 10 matches, topping their groups in

the process.

The closeness of the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12 Group Phase was shown by the fact that

five of the Last 16 participants were decided in the final round of matches in the Group Phase. The last

team to qualify were Polish champions Orlen Wisla Plock after winning their Group C duel at St.

Petersburg on Sunday (26 February).

Group B ended in particularly thrilling circumstances – four teams fought for the three open places in

the Last 16 in the final matches, with two of the decisive matches ending with a one goal margin

victory and one with a draw.

The variety of those 16 teams qualified for the Last 16 is huge. Even though all three Spanish and

German teams have made their way to the knockout stage, clubs from 11 countries will be fighting for

the qualification through to the Quarter-Finals in the two-legged matches on their way to the final

destination of Cologne – and only eight of them were part of last season’s Last 16.

Qualification for the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12: Third placed in Germany

Qualification for Last 16: Fourth placed in Group B

The road to the Last 16: Beating Bjerringbro in their final encounter - a real thriller -

brought the decisive points for the Foxes of Berlin, who qualified for the VELUX EHF

Champions League for the first time.

The Germans showed some surprising results like an opening draw at Medvedi and a

victory at Veszprem, but in the tight Group B they had a nervous wait until the end to

reach their minimum objective – qualification through to the Last 16.

Qualification for the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12: French Champion

Qualification for the Last 16: fourth placed in Group D

The road to the Last 16: Rank four was much less than expected for the French

champions – but especially their two home defeats against Kiel and Kobenhavn and

losing at Szeged and Leon were the reasons for this uncomfortable position of one of

the biggest contenders for the VELUX EHF FINAL4 2011/12.

Even the surprising victory at Kiel at the start of the competition could not bring more

stability to Karabatic and his side.

Qualification for the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12: Polish Champion

Qualification for the Last 16: Fourth placed in Group C

The road to the Last 16: Another long and winding road to the knock-out stage, but 16

years after the “Oilers” had been among the top 16 for the last time they managed the

qualification for the Last 16 by a final clear victory at St. Petersburg.

Coach Lars Walther had led his team to the Polish championship, which meant the direct

qualification for the VELUX EHF Champions League and after a good start with four

points from their first three games Plock were in a good position to qualify through to

the Last 16.

However, losing some key games such as at home against Metalurg meant that the final

decision needed to be made in the last round of Group C matches.

Qualification for Last 16: winner of Group D

The road to the Last 16: The 2009/10 winners of the VELUX EHF Champions League

three matches (including a home defeat against Montpellier and a draw at Leon), but

the Germans showed their real quality soon enough.

Six straight victories followed including wins at Montpellier and against Kobenhavn at

home where they took the first place in the group before the final duel at Kobenhavn

where, after a tough clash in Denmark, a draw was enough to finish first.

Qualification for the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/12: Hungarian Champion

Qualification for the Last 16: second placed in Group B

The road to the Last 16: After a perfect start the Hungarians had a nervous wait until

the last minute of the final group match to be sure of their place amongst the top 16

European teams.

They started with eight points from five matches before a series of defeats meant they

missed out on an earlier qualification through to the Last 16. After losing against

Füchse, Kielce and Medvedi the Hungarians beat Madrid in the final round of matches to

secure their ticket through to the knockout stage.

Qualification for Last 16: second placed in Group C

The road to the Last 16: The Slovenian champions and current EHF Challenge Cup

holders qualified early for the Last 16, but had to wait until the final match of their

group to know which position they would qualify through in.

Koper showed strength at home, winning all their matches against lower placed teams,

and even taking a draw at Hamburg, but after drawing at home against HC Metalurg

(they lost away at Skopje in the first round of matches) in the final round of group

games they needed help from Hamburg – and as the Germans took both points in FYR

Macedonia, Koper placed second in the end.

Tournament 3, Champion of FYR Macedonia

Qualification for the Last 16: third placed in Group C

The road to the Last 16: Coaching legend Lino Cervar built a strong team in Group C who

managed to beat all their opponents, except HSV Hamburg, at least once. Metalurg had

the strongest defence of all teams including their extraordinary goalkeeper Darko

Stanic.

Beating Koper in the first match was the start of a successful series only interrupted by

a draw at St. Petersburg and a surprising defeat at Constanta. But at home the

Macedonians were a real powerhouse. Even against Hamburg they were close to the

points, but the close defeat in Round 10 meant they missed out on second place,

finishing third overall.

The road to the Last 16: Thanks to their internationally experienced top class players

AG Kobenhavn made a big impact as debutants.

The Danes were fighting for the group victory from the first round of matches losing

only to Leon and Kiel away.

Ahead of the final round matches for the number one spot Kobenhavn came in to the

match against Kiel after a great away victory at Montpellier, but could only manage a

draw against them which was not enough to finish top – but the target in Kobenhavn

are high with qualification through to Cologne the aim.
