Last season, Giresunspor Men's Handball Team, which fell short of its rivals with a triple average, returned from the door of the Super League and will compete in the Super League next season. The Turkish Handball Federation made a surprising decision and invited Giresunspor, which finished the season in 3rd place, to the Super League.
DECISION MADE AS A RESULT OF EVALUATIONS
Despite qualifying for the Final Four group in the Men's 1st League of the Turkish Handball Federation (THF) for the 2024-2025 season, Giresunspor Men's Handball Team could not secure a ticket to the Super League due to the triple average rule. The green and white team achieved 2 victories and 1 defeat in the final stage, and although they had an advantage in the overall average, they fell behind Bahçelievler Municipality and Ankara Handball in the triple average.
However, following positive discussions with the Turkish Handball Federation, good news came for Giresunspor. With the decision made by the federation, the Giresun representative earned the right to compete in the Men's Super League in the 2025-2026 season.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT RELEASED
In a statement made by Giresunspor Club, the following was stated: "In line with the decision made by the Turkish Handball Federation, our Önallar Giresunspor Handball Team will compete in the Turkish Men's Handball Super League starting from the 2025-2026 season. Giresunspor is an important value representing our province not only in football but also in many amateur branches, especially handball. We wish our team, which we believe will represent our city in the best way in the Super League next season, success."
"OUR REAL STRUGGLE STARTS NOW"
Stating that they worked hard throughout the season, Giresunspor Men's Handball Team Coach Gökhan Kolukısaoğlu noted that they were eliminated at the end of the season due to the status and that this situation has been corrected. In his statement, Kolukısaoğlu said, "We put in a lot of effort throughout the season. Despite performing very well in the Final Fours, we were eliminated due to the triple average rule. However, the Turkish Handball Federation invited us to the Super League, considering Giresun's potential, its fans, and its facilities. Our real struggle starts now. We want to represent the name of Giresunspor in the Super League in the best way and to be permanent."
