BG Göttingen is strengthening: two new German basketball talents!

Preparations for the new 2025/26 season of BG Göttingen are in full swing. The team wants to inspire the fans with fresh energy and a new concept. The club recently hired coach Fabian Strauß to provide new impetus. At the same time, two promising newcomers were signed: Julius Böhmer and Hendrik Drescher. Both will provide crucial support to the team on the way to the second ProA league.

23-year-old Julius Böhmer is moving from Würzburg Baskets to Göttingen and will receive a two-year contract with the possibility of an exit clause. With a height of 1.93 m, he is mainly used as a point guard, but can also play as a shooting guard or small forward. Böhmer has already played 76 games in the Bundesliga in his career so far, but had to take a longer break due to a torn cruciate ligament. The club's goal is to get him fit again by the start of the season. He is a talented player with great ambitions and will want to reach his full potential next season. According to HNA, he has impressed in both the Youth Basketball Bundesliga and the Junior Basketball Bundesliga in the past and now wants to ignite the next stage of his career.

The new “Big Man”

Hendrik Drescher, who was added to the squad as a “big man”, brings with him not only physical presence at 2.04 m, but also valuable experience. The 25-year-old previously played for the Vet-Concept Gladiators Trier and spent his youth at Alba Berlin. After his positions at EWE Baskets Oldenburg and Hamburg Towers/Rist-Wedel, he has now decided to move to BG Göttingen. His versatility and maturity will benefit the team. Together with Böhmer, he increases the proportion of German players in the team and brings a breath of fresh air into the net.

Overall, BG Göttingen has thought through the squad well for the coming season. The new additions not only strengthen the quality but also the German identity of the team. In addition to Böhmer and Drescher, the team includes other talents such as Mathis Mönninghoff, Janis Jünemann, Robin Lodders and Daniel Kirchner. The club plans to only sign four import players in order to focus on homegrown talent. BG Göttingen is reacting to the declining budgets of the second league, but the plan is clear: the team should remain competitive and continue to promote its own youth work.

Offspring and future plans

Another exciting aspect is the club's strategy of recruiting the twelfth player from their own ranks. In this way, the BG Göttingen is relying on its own youth and building on successful traditions. Players like Böhmer and Drescher should not only increase performance, but also inspire and inspire other talents.

Exciting times lie ahead for BG Göttingen. The club is determined to establish itself in the ProA next season and perhaps even cause surprises. With a fresh coach and talented newcomers, the path is set for further growth in the new season. So we can only hope that Böhmer gets fit in time and can inspire the fans with exciting basketball. As always, fan support will be crucial - every fan counts here! The BG Göttingen is looking forward to an exciting year full of basketball!
