COACHING BREAK AND RETURN
In 2018 he took a break from coaching at UHC Hamburg after 25 years working with various teams at the club, to focus on his work as head of human resources and legal for a steel trading company. He returned to active coaching when he was appointed head coach of the German men's team in November 2019. "I looked after all age groups at UHC for both male and female teams along with various roles with the German Hockey Federation [DHB]. After all that time I felt my batteries were empty and needed a break. For once I was looking forward to being bored at weekends."
