The Enns sports hall will be the venue for the fistball final 3 next week on Friday, February 23rd (5 p.m.) and Saturday, February 24th (4 p.m.). This makes Mayor Christian Deleja-Hotko proud: “It’s nice that we can host a tournament like this for the first time in Austria’s oldest city.” Even if the local heroes of AWN TV Enns did not qualify for the showdown at home, a full house (capacity: 550 visitors) can be expected.
“Of course we are disappointed that our men just didn’t make it, but it is still a special honor to act as hosts,” said OK boss and coach Kurt Gürtler.
Others will set the tone on the floor: in the women’s competition, finalist Freistadt is waiting for the winner of the duel between defending champion Nußbach and Arnreit. By the way, the club from the Rohrbach district manages without a legionnaire and stands for continuity. In 34 years of the Bundesliga, there have been 27 final tournament participations.
In the men’s category, the Tigers Vöcklabruck, who are loudly supported by their battle fans (“Yellow Wall”), are in pole position. “Everyone here is fit,” reported setter Elias Walchshofer. Last year’s winners Compact Freistadt and FBC Urfahr will duel in the semifinals.
