TSV Calw after play-off defeat: dream of the title shattered!
The fistball season is coming to an end in Germany, and there is great disappointment at TSV Calw: the third-placed team in the preliminary round Fistball Bundesliga suffered a bitter setback in the play-offs and missed the chance to reach the final in Dresden. After a sobering series of three defeats in a row, the team fell out of contention and the dream of the championship burst like a bubble.
In the first play-off game there was a bitter 5-0 defeat against TSV Pfungstadt, in which Calwer had to play without their main attacker Raphael Schlattinger. He was injured in the previous game against TV Vaihingen/Enz and could not play. The sets against Pfungstadt were clear, the points lost speak for themselves: 6:11, 6:11, 7:11, 8:11 and finally 5:11.
Playoff playoffs
The Calw team had little time to recover, as the next crisis game against TV SW-Oberndorf followed within 20 hours. Despite a strong start by winning the first two sets, the tide turned: Calw lost the match 3:5. The spectators in the Walter Lindner sports hall in Calw, which numbered around 80 visitors, experienced an exciting duel in which the air became increasingly thin for Calwer after they had won sets. Ricardo Lebherz also had to leave the field due to a nosebleed.
With these results the season is finally over for TSV Calw, while TV SW-Oberndorf is very happy and can celebrate their place in the final.
