SG Hemsbach 1912 eV – Mixed results of the Hemsbach badminton teams

Last weekend the two Hemsbach badminton teams competed away. The first team played against BSG Mannheim II and in the second game they played in the local derby against the third team TSG Weinheim. The second team spent the matchday from start to finish in Mannheim. Because for them it was against BSG Mannheim III and BSG Mannheim IV.

At the weekend both teams played away at BSG Mannheim.
Hemsbach I met Mannheim II with the best line-up. The first men’s doubles H.Reinemuth / T.Hartmann had to give everything, but were able to narrowly prevail in two sets 25:23, 22:20. The women’s doubles F. Stieler / S.Fuhrmann, who were mostly superior in the class, also had to fight, but were able to improve to 2-0 with 21:13, 19:21, 21:13. The 2nd men’s doubles from M.Fischer / S.Haas and T.Hartmann in the first singles took the points to Hemsbach with 22:20, 21:12. F. Stieler got the important 5th point in the women’s singles with 21:12, 19:21, 21:13. A confident victory by the mixed team S.Fuhrmann / H.Reinemuth and in the 2nd men’s singles by team leader S. Haas completed the ultimately safe 7:1 away win.

Then it was off to the local derby against second-placed TSG Weinheim, who started the match day with a 6-2 win. Normally a close game, this time it was a one-sided encounter for SG Hemsbach against a somewhat weakened TSG. At 8-0, all matches were won in two sets. Only S.Haas in the 3rd men’s singles had to go into the 3rd set, but was ultimately able to hold on with 21:14, 19:21, 23:21. This puts Hemsbach I in second place in the table. Hemsbach 2 had to cope with a few absences due to illness. So you would have been satisfied with one or two points. Against Mannheim IV, the 1st HD from N.Engelhardt / F.Dugimont started the game with a 3 set win. After losing the women’s doubles, N. Engelhardt was able to increase the score to 3:1 with 22:20, 21:13 and F. Dugimont 21:19, 21:11. Unfortunately, the next 3 games went to Mannheim, which meant that the final mixed pair of B.Hertinger / I.Wellmann could only have equalized, but in the end they had to hand over the points to Mannheim in 2 close sets to make it 3:5. Against Mannheim III it was a losing battle from the start. Only the men’s doubles of N. Engelhardt and youth player B. Ackermann, making their debut in the team, were able to win a set in a hard-fought match. D. Bajic unfortunately didn’t have the necessary bit of luck at 18:21, 21:23 to at least get the honorary point. Hemsbach II is now in 6th place in the table.

On November 23rd, 2024. the last preliminary round matchday takes place. Hemsbach I with 2 home games in the BIZ, Hemsbach II with 2 away games.
