The Germans didn’t give up. They will finish their national league. The 2019/20 national championship has been continued after a 20-week break, caused by the pandemic.

As we already reported, the league will be completed by a “short “competition formula. Six teams take part.

This weekend, the quarterfinal tournament (qualifications for the semifinals) was played in Potsdam. The top two teams advanced to the semifinals of the playoffs.

White Sharks from Hannover took the 1st place in the quarterfinal group. Along with White Sharks, home team OSC Potsdam also qualified for the semifinals.

Spandau 04 and Waspo Hannover 98, the best two German clubs, are directly qualified for the semifinals. Before the suspension of the league, Spandau and Waspo were in the first two places of the table. Before the semifinals, the two teams will face off in the match for the “pole position”. After that game, which will be played on Tuesday, the semifinals’ pairings will be known.
