Bundesliga Coach of the Year Award Given to Foxes' Siewert
Sets the Scene:
In the dynamic world of German handball, the Berlin Foxes are reigning supreme—thanks to a young, talented coach named Jaron Siewert. This 31-year-old wunderkind has been hailed as the HBL's Trainer of the Season, outshining his counterparts from SC Magdeburg's Bennet Wiegert.
Fresh Perspective, Strong Performance:
Siewert, the Bundesliga's youngest coach, has played an instrumental role in the Foxes' victories both in the domestic league and the Champions League. When it comes to a potential title win this year, the capital city team is still in the race. Despite the accolades, this humble handball coach shies away from the spotlight, preferring a quieter path to success.
Stefan Kretzschmar, the team's sports director, spoke of his pride for Siewert, stating, "I think Jaron deserves this election more than anyone else." Siewert has been at the helm of the Foxes for his fifth season, proving himself to be a silent force behind the scenes.
New Additions:
To bolster the team's ranks, the Foxes are welcoming Norwegian import Tobias Gröndahl from the Danish top club GOG Handbold. The 24-year-old's arrival comes as a replacement for Paul Drux, who retired due to injuries. Gröndahl has signed a contract until 2028.
The Foxes have also extended the contract of Hakun West av Teigum, the Faroese national player, ensuring the right winger's services until 2028. West joined the team during the 2023 summer.

Despite the Berlin Foxes' dominance in German handball under Jaron Siewert, and their success in both the domestic league and Champions League, Siewert personally prefers to remain out of the spotlight. The Foxes, in an effort to strengthen their ranks, have signed Norwegian football player Tobias Gröndahl from GOG Handbold.
