The task and purpose of the foundation was to promote the sport of handball, particularly in the Bundesliga, and to represent the interests of the Bundesliga clubs in their dealings with the DHB. Since then, it has developed continuously and is now the flagship of German handball. Traditional clubs characterize the competition and deliver spectacular duels year after year.
