On the last match day of the Bavarian Association League, Team Munich once again impressed with two victories, thereby securing promotion to the district league. 


In mid-March, Team Munich faced SVN Munich II again in the first match of the last match day. With a clear 3-0 victory (25-19, 25-15, 25-12), Team Munich collected another three points and secured the championship. In the last match of the season, our team faced Obermenzing II, who were third in the league. In a hard-fought match, our team ultimately prevailed once again with a 3–0 victory (25–20, 26–24, 25–16).

After 18 games, Team Munich has 17 wins. clearly in first place the table and is promoted to the district league with 51 points.

III. Tennis


Spring is just around the corner, which means our indoor training is slowly coming to an end. (see picture) We expect to start the new season in April, with league matches beginning in May.


[BEZ_MANDANT]

A particular highlight of the past year was the Eight new members have joined. This positive development shows that our club is attractive to many tennis enthusiasts. In addition, we continue to receive high demand from interested players who would like to attend our trial training sessions. This enthusiasm and interest in Team Munich and our division is a great incentive for us.


Due to increased interest and growing membership numbers, we have decided to hold our first two teams for league play This is an exciting step for our division and offers all members the opportunity to prove themselves in competition and gain new experiences. We are looking forward to many exciting matches.

VI. Football Streetboys


Although the hoped-for victory failed to materialise in March, the team showed a noticeable performance enhancement from game to game. With this momentum, the Streetboys are now heading into the upcoming games, determined to secure their first win of the year. 


The team is looking forward to loud support from the fans against their upcoming opponents. Come along and cheer on the Streetboys! (You can find the match dates here)


Off the pitch, Team Munich Streetboys used their free weekend at the beginning of March to get together. team bowling. The atmosphere was lively, the balls rolled busily down the lanes, and everyone clearly enjoyed the little sporting diversion. 

VII. Handball


After we handball players achieved our first victory of 2025 at home against TSV Forstenried II at the beginning of February, we were hungry to go one better in recent weeks.


[BEZ_MANDANT]

This was followed by three games that posed a major challenge for us: On 23 February, we played at home against Kirchheimer SC. By half-time, our opponents had already built up a strong eight-goal lead at 10:18, and in the end we lost the match 15:37. The next game followed on 16 March. We played away against TSV Trudering III, who were able to capitalise on their home advantage right from the start. With the score at 19:6 for Trudering at half-time, it was clear that we could only improve the score cosmetically: we doubled our goals once again, conceded fewer, and so the final score was 30:12 for Trudering. On 23 March, we played at home against TSV Milbertshofen III. What was a close game in the first 15 minutes ended in a clear 16:29 defeat.


We want to change that in our next games, of course, and we're continuing to work hard for our next success. As always, we appreciate support from the sidelines. If you feel like watching some handball, the best thing to do is follow @teammuenchenhandball on Instagram, where we now always post stylish announcements so that you never miss a game again.


We are also currently looking for new players and a new coach.. For more information about us, training times, halls and more, please visit our website. www.teammuenchen.de/handball

New frontrunner for the Pink List


As we all know, big events cast their shadows before them, and so does the Local elections on 8 March 2026. The queer voter initiative Rosa Liste München will present itself with a new lead candidate.

Thomas Niederbühl, who is stepping down as city councillor after 30 years, will be succeeded by Bernd Müller (57) in first place on the list. Many of you will know him from his years of involvement in the Munich community. Bernd has been active in Team Munich's dance division for many years as a coach and member of the division's executive committee.


„Especially in these politically difficult times, when society is drifting to the right and LGBTIQ* people are also under increasing pressure, we must secure and further expand what we have achieved – and also create a climate in Munich that protects queer people and recognises them in all their diversity,“ says Bernd Müller. „That's why Rosa Liste is still the right choice for the future!”


We would be delighted if he could count on your support! Contact: bernd.mueller@rosaliste.de
