The ongoing month is one of crucial moments of the year for TTC Berlin Eastside in its attempt to defend remarkable achievements from the 2015/16 season. Irina PALINA`s side won all three possible titles last season – ECLW, German League and German Cup – and soon they will defend first out of three, German Cup, on January 8th in Hanover. January 2017 brings one more important game – ECLW quarterfinal leg no. 1 against ALCL TT Grand Quevilly.
“From now there are no easy opponents. We are definitely looking forward to the challenge. One thing is already clear: the decision will come in the rematch, on our soil in Berlin”, stated coach of reigning ECLW champion Irina PALINA, speaking about upcoming encounters with French club.
First quarter-final match will be held on January 26-29th, while returning clash is scheduled for February 10th. Berlin won all its games so far, counting all three competitions.
