Team information

GWD Minden and HSG Düsseldorf were directly relegated after finishing in the bottom two places.

The relegated teams were replaced by HSG Ahlen-Hamm, champions of the 2009–10 2. Handball-Bundesliga North, and TSG Friesenheim, champions of the 2009-10 2. Handball-Bundesliga South.

A further place in the league was decided through a two-legged play-off between the 16th placed team of the previous season and the play-off winner between the two second placed teams of the two 2. Bundesligas. This play-off was won by DHC Rheinland who had finished the previous season in 16th place.

Notes:

  1. VfL Gummersbach play high-profile matches which attract a large crowd at the Lanxess Arena.
  2. Füchse Berlin generally play at the Max-Schmeling-Halle, however, as this is a multi-use venue some matches may clash with other events and hence are moved to the O2 World Arena.
  3. Frisch Auf Göppingen's home venue EWS Arena is currently undergoing renovation/expansion works. In the meantime, all matches are played at Stuttgart's Porsche-Arena.
  4. TV Großwallstadt play in Großwallstadt, however, move to Aschaffenburg for high-profile matches.
