New coach, strong newcomers: BG Göttingen relies on German talents!

Würzburg, Deutschland - in Göttingen something happens! The BG Göttingen basketball club is working hard to put together its team for the 2025/26 season. The new trainer Fabian Strauß has already drawn two exciting newcomers ashore: Julius Böhmer from the Würzburg Baskets and Hendrik Drescher from the VET-Concept Gladiators Trier. Böhmer, 23 years old and 1.93 m tall, is planned on the position of the point guards, but also has to act the potential as a shoot or small forward. His injury history applies for special attention; After a cruciate ligament rupture, he had to take a longer forced break, but now wants to dare to restart. With its 2.04 m height, Drescher not only brings heavy, but also quality to the team and is classified as "Big Man". The 25-year-old has already played for several teams in the league, including the EWE Baskets Oldenburg and the Hamburg Towers.

The newcomers Böhmer and Drescher are part of a strategic realignment at BG Göttingen, which has decided to increase the proportion of German players in the team. In addition to the two new ones, Mathis Mönninghoff, Lennart Schultz, Janis Jünemann, Robin Lodder and Daniel Kirchner are also in the squad. The plan stipulates that only four import players are obliged, which represents a reduction in the previous regulation of six import players. The EBBL also requires that at least two German players are on the field during the game - a requirement that BG Göttingen can now meet very well thanks to its new additions. The twelfth player in the team is to be recruited from their own offspring, which further strengthens the club.

A look at Hendrik Drescher

For those who do not yet know Hendrik Drescher: the 25-year-old comes fresh from VfL Sparkassenstars Bochum and brings impressive statistics. Last season he scored an average of 10.3 points per game and convinced with a three -year rate of 39.1 percent. Dora has made a name for herself in recent years, not least because of his remarkable performance, where he conjured up 25 points on the floor in a home game against the polar bears. Thanks to his talent and experience at SC Rist Wedel and in the BBL, he deserves the nickname "Dreischer".

About the sporty career of Drescher can only be marveled. He started his basketball career in the primary school in Berlin-Neukölln and went through the youth school in Alba Berlin, where he made his debut in the Bundesliga at the age of 17. His successes in the NBBL, where he was recognized in 2018 as a must value player, speak for themselves. He was also able to gain international experiences with the German U16 and U18 national teams, which also puts him in the spotlight.

Promotion of basketball youngsters

In the funding landscape of basketball in Germany, a lot is happening. The Institute for Applied Training Science in Leipzig has prepared the data for young talent performance promotion in an exciting way. The current infographics clearly show how the path of young players goes into the system. This clear presentation should not only benefit athletes and trainers, but also clubs and associations. Adam Ligocki, the sporting director of the German Basketball Federation, emphasizes the benefits of these facts and shows how important the long -term promotion of young talent is.

The BG Göttingen sets an important sign in the local basketball landscape with its new additions. It is worth knowing that the promotion of German talents is a central concern of the league and contributes to further increasing the quality in German basketball.
