ZDF with television team at IFSS

On September 9, a ZDF television crew visited the Institute of Sport and Sport Science. Prof. Dr. Norbert Hagemann was interviewed on the current results of a DFG project for a report on the subject of "Left-handers in sport". The question was why left-handers are more successful in many interactive sports such as tennis and fencing than their right-handed opponents. The results of the project suggest that this is due in particular to a lack of familiarization with the left-handed playing style.

The television report is expected to be broadcast on the programs 'Drehscheibe Deutschland' and 'Volle Kanne' on September 28, 2010. You can also watch these programs after the broadcast in the ZDF media library(http://www.zdf.de/ZDFmediathek/beitrag/video/1152634/Unberechenbare-Linkshaender-im-Sport#/beitrag/video/1152634/Unberechenbare-Linkshaender-im-Sport).
