Fulda (fs) – All of a sudden, the TTC RhönSprudel Fulda-Maberzell can go into the season’s final spurt of the table tennis Bundesliga after the now established league – and it has it all again: Before it goes to Neu-Ulm on Tuesday, The difficult away game in Saarbrücken is on Friday evening (7 p.m.). On Sunday (3 p.m.) TTF Liebherr Ochsenhausen will be guests for the last Maberzell home game of the season in the Wilmington-Halle. Quadri Aruna is about to renew its contract.

“We would certainly have grabbed our relegation that way. But that’s also a good thing, now we have no more pressure, “said Maberzell’s President Stefan Frauenholz after the news that the season in the 2nd Bundesliga was canceled – so there is no promoted to the TTBL and therefore no relegated there. By the way, the TTBL will probably have the same face next season: All twelve teams have signaled that they want to belong to the House of Lords again next season – a wildcard for a second division team (Bad Hamm in particular wanted to go up) would no longer be an option.
Far from the Maberzell earnings crisis of meanwhile six defeats in a row, there is also more good news for the TTC: Quadri Aruna, who sustained a severe adductor injury against Grenzau, is fit again. “We worked intensively through Dr. Everything and the center man took care of him. He was treated every day, including ultrasound treatments. He has been able to train again since Monday and will be able to play again on Friday, ”said a happy Frauenholz. Before Aruna’s family leaves for Portugal, his future in Maberzell should also be clarified: The TTC wants to take out the contract option and bind the 32-year-old to another year, the extension should only be a matter of form: “Before he leaves, we want Definitely still do that. That can now happen at short notice, ”explains Frauenholz.
However, table tennis is still played – and not too close: On Friday (7 p.m.) the East Hessians have to play in second in the table in Saarbrücken, on Sunday it will be at home against third-placed Ochsenhausen. “We won against Saarbrücken in the first leg – let’s see if we can do that again,” said the TTC president. Against Ochsenhausen, the East Hesse, where the knot should finally burst after six defeats in a row, hope that the Upper Swabians will not compete with the best line-up: “You have to wait and see whether Ochsenhauen will play with a full squad or because the play-offs are already fixed , maybe leave Hugo Calderano outside. Then we would have a small chance ”, hopes Frauenholz. The focus is initially on the two blasts against the top teams after record champions Düsseldorf, but Maberzell’s president will at least have a look at the game on Tuesday in Neu-Ulm – because the bar there is also high: “The same applies to all three games : Two points would be nice. ”
