Wikipedia - LNH Division 1
LNH Division 1, doing business as Starligue and currently known as Liqui Moly Starligue for sponsorship reasons, is the premier men's professional handball league in France. It is administered by the Ligue Nationale de Handball, under delegation from the French Handball Federation. Founded in 1952, it is currently contested by 16 teams.
Montpellier Handball is the most successful club with 14 titles, and the club which won the most consecutive titles is Paris Saint-Germain with 9 between 2015 and 2023.
The champion and the vice-champion are directly qualified for the group phase of the EHF Champions League. The winners of the Coupe de France and the Coupe de la Ligue are qualified for the European League. If the winner of (one of) these cups is also the champion, the place(s) are attributed in terms of the Division 1 ranking.
Since 2016, the league has had a title sponsor. Discount retail chain Lidl was the first, paying €1 million per season for the rights (with the exception of the final season, a short term extension signed during the COVID-19 crisis). It was succeeded in 2021 by lubricant manufacturer Liqui Moly.
Starligue er den øverste håndballdivisjonen for menn i Frankrike. Ligaen ble etablert i 1952 og består av 16 lag. Sesongen spilles fra september til mai på rundspillsystem, hvor hvert lag møter hverandre to ganger. De åtte beste lagene etter grunnserien går videre til sluttspill, mens de to nederste lagene rykker ned til Proligue.
Starligue er en av de sterkeste håndballligaene i Europa, og flere franske klubber har vunnet internasjonale titler. Blant de mest suksessrike klubbene er Paris Saint-Germain, Montpellier HB, HBC Nantes og Toulouse Handball.
Ligaen har vært dominert av Paris Saint-Germain de siste årene, som har vunnet de siste sju mesterskapene på rad. Andre topplag i ligaen inkluderer Montpellier HB, Nantes og Toulouse.
Noen av de mest kjente spillerne som har spilt i Starligue inkluderer Nikola Karabatic, Daniel Narcisse, Mikkel Hansen og Thierry Omeyer. Ligaen er kjent for sitt høye nivå og spennende kamper, og tiltrekker seg store publikum og TV-seere.
