There will be British interest on both sides of the court when the top-two teams in Germany go head-to-head this weekend with Helen Freeman, Simon Brown and Ian Sagar in action.
Freeman’s RSB Thuringia Bulls are top of RBBL1 with a 100 per cent winning record this season; a record Freeman will be hoping remains when the league leaders travel to RSV Lahn-Dill on Saturday. Lahn-Dill are four points behind Thuringia Bulls, but Brown and Sagar’s side have played a game less.
The top of the table clash in Germany is one of eight games expected to feature GB athletes in Spain and Germany this weekend, including a head-to-head battle between Terry Bywater/Gregg Warburton and James MacSorley in Spain.
