HSC 2000 Coburg and Leikeim Brewery: Separation after 25 years of collaboration!

HSC 2000 Coburg and the Leikeim brewery have announced that they will end their collaboration after the 2024/25 season. This decision marks the end of a long-standing partnership that has existed since the association was founded in 2000.

The Leikeim brewery, a traditional, family-run company, was founded in Altenkunstadt in 1887 and has established itself as a reliable partner of the HSC 2000 Coburg over five generations. Jan Gorr, the club's coach, expressly thanked him for the fruitful and trusting collaboration with Leikeim, which was always characterized by a family atmosphere. Gorr emphasizes that the common experiences and successes shared should not be underestimated.

New paths for the HSC

Andreas Leikeim also commented on the termination of the cooperation and wishes the HSC 2000 Coburg all the best for the challenges ahead. This new direction is part of the club's plan to expand the catchment area and provide fresh impetus to continue playing successfully in the top league.

Since its founding, the HSC 2000 Coburg has developed into a significant player in handball. The club achieved immediate promotion to the regional league and has already won several championship titles. The company's own arena, which opened in Coburg in 2007, is further proof of its steady rise. The support of regional sponsors and a loyal following have contributed significantly to the club's success.

Sponsorship in sports

The termination of the partnership is also a small part of the larger trend in sports sponsorship, which is steadily growing in importance. Sports partnerships not only provide visibility for brands through signage and jerseys, but also help reach an engaged audience. The emotional bond created by sport plays a special role - the positive feelings about favorite teams or athletes can have a decisive impact on brand perception.

Through sponsorship activations or a committed community, brands can not only show proximity to their customers, but also significantly enhance their own brand. These factors are of great importance for companies like the Leikeim brewery in order to stand out from their competitors. Whether in regional initiatives or on the international stage, sports sponsorship remains a valuable marketing tool.

While the paths of the HSC 2000 Coburg and the Leikeim Brewery are now diverging, it remains to be seen what new partnerships the club will enter into and how the sporting landscape will develop in the coming period.
