ASV Hamm without a coach: interim trio relies on the Aurich victory!

The handball fans in Hamm are facing upheaval because ASV Hamm-Westfalen has parted ways with coach Jörn-Uwe Lommel. As wa.de reports, an interim coaching trio consisting of Fabian Huesmann, Micky Reiners and Christoph Reichenberger is currently preparing for the next game against OHV Aurich. Huesmann, who cannot play due to an injury, was prepared for the separation and goes into the remaining training sessions with a clear concept.

The pressure on the team cannot be overlooked, especially after the last win against GWD Minden II with 33:29. That gives a little hope in the fight against relegation. Huesmann does not plan any fundamental changes in the approach to the game, as the focus is on the stability of the team. Managing director Markus Fuchs emphasizes the need for careful discussions about the future choice of coach. In the rumors floating around, well-known coaches such as Stefan Just, Stefan Neff and Johannes Wohlrab are being discussed, but these options are being ruled out for Hamm.

A chapter ends

Jörn-Uwe Lommel only recently came to ASV as a coach. During his short term in office, which meant a return to the handball business for the 67-year-old after many years in retirement, the goal was clear: staying in the league. According to asv-hamm-westfalen.de he wanted to turn things around with passion and experience. But the bad results, most recently in the game against Hagen, led to a separation. Managing director Fuchs had already recognized the need for impetus for the team during the game.

Lommel's time at ASV was characterized by high expectations, which were not met. He was supposed to revitalize the team and had the hope of securing relegation, but the ongoing difficulties led to an early end to the collaboration. Those responsible had initially considered a FIXED collaboration for three games. His passionate leadership style and his great successes as a player and coach, including the gold medal at the 2010 Youth Olympic Games, ultimately had no lasting success.

The future of the ASV

And now? Planning for the future of ASV Hamm-Westphalia is in full swing. As is known, the team under the interim management of Huesmann, Reiners and Reichenberger will face Aurich, a game that is of great importance for the club. The sporting situation is tense, ASV is in 16th place and every point counts in the relegation battle. In particular, the emerging rumors surrounding the coaching goals show that the club is looking for a stable solution.

The fans can only hope that the interim coaches can bring the necessary breath of fresh air to motivate the team and get them on track. The home games are already attracting the first fans back into the hall. The next important game against Aurich will be crucial in setting the course for the rest of the season.

In the meantime, it remains to be seen how developments surrounding the ASV will pan out. Managing director Fuchs and the sporting team have some homework to do and are faced with the challenge of setting the course for a successful future. The hope for a new beginning remains and the subscribers of the handball-plagued city are eagerly awaiting the next steps.
