Handball-Bundesliga Rolls Out Goal-Line Technology for Every Match

Clubs approved the league-wide rollout unanimously at a member assembly.

Die Referees können sich strittige Torszenen anschauen
Auch HSVH-Keeper Mohamed El-Tayar wird sich künftig auf die neue Technik verlassen können.

Overview

  • The system debuts with Wednesday’s season opener between TSV Hannover-Burgdorf and VfL Gummersbach at 19:00.
  • Referee teams can review disputed goal-line images at the sideline, and the final decision remains theirs.
  • Two high-resolution cameras mounted in the upper goal corners provide new angles to judge whether the ball fully crossed the line.
  • The setup is intended to quickly resolve unclear scoring situations so play can restart without long delays.
  • The technology complements the video review introduced in 2023/24 after earlier trials at the Supercup and DHB-Pokal Final4.
