Return of the champion
The 2025 season was a write-off for Reichert, lost entirely to an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Now, at last, she’s playing again.
“It was a really tough year, not being able to play at all in 2025,” Reichert told Olympics.com in Warsaw. “But I’m just super happy and proud to be back now. It’s so much fun playing again, playing 3×3 — I’m trying to enjoy every second.”
Germany arrive in Poland with a refreshed roster from the 2024 squad. Britta Daub, Ama Degbeon, and Laura Zolper make up the squad alongside Reichert, with Degbeon and Zopler the sole members to have played at last year’s World Cup, where Germany finished 11th.
“It makes me even more proud to keep representing Germany, and I’m trying to win as many more games as possible,” Reichert said. “We’re a new squad now, a new team, but the goal is to win another medal here at the World Cup.”
