WELCOME TO THE DHB
As Germany's most popular indoor sport, handball not only provides a home for millions of fans, but also impresses with its speed, down-to-earth nature and honest work. These are just some of the things that make the German Handball Association a proud representative of its members and fans.
The DHB is the largest handball federation in the world - and one of the most successful. The sport has a long history of success in Germany.
FASCINATION HANDBALL
Handball has been played in Germany for more than 100 years, first outdoors on a large field and later indoors on a smaller court. Since the 1990s, beach handball has added a whole new, trendy layer to the sport. Handball is versatile and captivates women and men of all ages - from national team players to children.
Be part of the decade of handball!
The decade of handball will bring an unprecedented number of prestigious handball events to the sport's home country, making Germany the ultimate handball hotspot. With the Women's and Men's World Championships and the European Championships, your brand will be a central part of a sports phenomenon.
Emotional image transfer & new customers
The primary goal of the partnership is to transform the numerous handball fans, DHB members and sympathisers into your new customers. Nothing builds brand loyalty like emotional experiences with your target audience. We offer experiences and associations that money can't buy and that will stay with you for a long time. As a partner of the German Handball Association, your brand will become one of the most important sponsors of German handball. A status that is clearly reflected in the sympathy and usage behavior of the fans - also in comparison to the main sponsors of the teams in the German Handball League.
Top exposure & reach for your brand
In addition to visibility at international tournaments and the Olympic Games, you can also generate maximum attention after the final whistle through integration in press conferences and player interviews. These will be broadcast in the mainstream media as well as on the digital channels of the German Handball Association.
Attractive target group
Handball fans are not only enthusiastic supporters of their sport, they are also role models when it comes to social participation - almost 30% of those surveyed in a 2023 study are involved in volunteering. The sport is generally perceived by fans as down-to-earth and fair. Companies sponsoring handball have a unique opportunity to reach a target group with high spending power and commitment.
Sustainable strategy at DHB
The German Handball Association is aware of the societal importance of handball. With this in mind, the DHB leads by example and aligns its actions with all three dimensions of sustainability.
For us, handball embodies important values such as team spirit, passion and fair play, which fit perfectly with our corporate philosophy.
