Lövgren’s farewell on ehfTV.com

The iconic world class Swedish handballer, Stefan Lövgren, has decided to close his extremely rich handball career at the end of the past season. The World and European Champion playmaker was a prominent player of THW Kiel for 10 seasons and the German club will honour his contribution by organising a farewell event for their former captain.

The programme of the show event on 8 August 2009 in Kiel will bring on court a number of handball legends. An exhibition game between a veteran World Selection and the THW Kiel “old boys” will open the programme.

The highlight of the event will be a game between the new THW Kiel team for the 2009/10 season facing a selection of former and current handball stars.

Legends and star players such as Wislander, Stefansson, Kretzschmar, Tuchkin, Christiansen, Nagy and Karabatic will step on court to celebrate Lövgren once again.
