German Handball Federation strikes early extension to Sportfive deal

The German Handball Federation (DHB) has agreed a five-year extension to its media and marketing rights partnership with the Sportfive agency.

The two parties have been in partnership since 2008 and the existing contract was due to expire at the end of 2015. The early extension means the agreement will now run until 2020.

Sportfive will continue to bear responsibility for the marketing of media and commercial rights to the men’s and women’s German national teams.
